So the greatest common factor 4218,6404 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 817,8293
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6775381
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6775381
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4218/817,6404/8293 is 2/6775381
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 817,8293 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(817,8293) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(817,8293) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(817,8293) = ( 817 × 8293 ) / 1
LCM(817,8293) = 6775381 / 1
LCM(817,8293) = 6775381
