Lets's calculate LCM of 127,6191
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 786257
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/786257
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4456/127,9938/6191 is 2/786257
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 127,6191 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(127,6191) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(127,6191) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(127,6191) = ( 127 × 6191 ) / 1
LCM(127,6191) = 786257 / 1
LCM(127,6191) = 786257
