Lets's calculate LCM of 796,8853
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7046988
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/7046988
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6176/796,3994/8853 is 2/7046988
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 796,8853 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(796,8853) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(796,8853) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(796,8853) = ( 796 × 8853 ) / 1
LCM(796,8853) = 7046988 / 1
LCM(796,8853) = 7046988
