Lets's calculate LCM of 842,1141
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 960722
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/960722
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6160/842,2462/1141 is 2/960722
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 842,1141 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(842,1141) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(842,1141) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(842,1141) = ( 842 × 1141 ) / 1
LCM(842,1141) = 960722 / 1
LCM(842,1141) = 960722
