Lets's calculate LCM of 786,6961
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5471346
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5471346
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4518/786,5458/6961 is 2/5471346
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 786,6961 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(786,6961) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(786,6961) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(786,6961) = ( 786 × 6961 ) / 1
LCM(786,6961) = 5471346 / 1
LCM(786,6961) = 5471346
