Lets's calculate LCM of 716,841
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 602156
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/602156
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3510/716,1956/841 is 6/602156
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 716,841 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(716,841) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(716,841) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(716,841) = ( 716 × 841 ) / 1
LCM(716,841) = 602156 / 1
LCM(716,841) = 602156
