Lets's calculate LCM of 745,846
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 630270
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/630270
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4866/745,2412/846 is 6/630270
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 745,846 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(745,846) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(745,846) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(745,846) = ( 745 × 846 ) / 1
LCM(745,846) = 630270 / 1
LCM(745,846) = 630270
