Lets's calculate LCM of 303,6739
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2041917
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2041917
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6138/303,4706/6739 is 2/2041917
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 303,6739 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(303,6739) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(303,6739) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(303,6739) = ( 303 × 6739 ) / 1
LCM(303,6739) = 2041917 / 1
LCM(303,6739) = 2041917
