Lets's calculate LCM of 246,8401
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2066646
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2066646
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4736/246,1585/8401 is 1/2066646
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 246,8401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(246,8401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(246,8401) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(246,8401) = ( 246 × 8401 ) / 1
LCM(246,8401) = 2066646 / 1
LCM(246,8401) = 2066646
