So the greatest common factor 6068,8396 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 542,4023
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2180466
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2180466
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6068/542,8396/4023 is 4/2180466
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 542,4023 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(542,4023) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(542,4023) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(542,4023) = ( 542 × 4023 ) / 1
LCM(542,4023) = 2180466 / 1
LCM(542,4023) = 2180466
