Lets's calculate LCM of 837,5186
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4340682
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4340682
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6008/837,4266/5186 is 2/4340682
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 837,5186 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(837,5186) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(837,5186) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(837,5186) = ( 837 × 5186 ) / 1
LCM(837,5186) = 4340682 / 1
LCM(837,5186) = 4340682
