Lets's calculate LCM of 461,7159
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3300299
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3300299
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6074/461,9986/7159 is 2/3300299
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 461,7159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(461,7159) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(461,7159) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(461,7159) = ( 461 × 7159 ) / 1
LCM(461,7159) = 3300299 / 1
LCM(461,7159) = 3300299
