Lets's calculate LCM of 474,8167
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3871158
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/3871158
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6168/474,3572/8167 is 4/3871158
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 474,8167 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(474,8167) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(474,8167) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(474,8167) = ( 474 × 8167 ) / 1
LCM(474,8167) = 3871158 / 1
LCM(474,8167) = 3871158
