Lets's calculate LCM of 485,6971
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3380935
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3380935
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6346/485,3072/6971 is 2/3380935
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 485,6971 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(485,6971) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(485,6971) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(485,6971) = ( 485 × 6971 ) / 1
LCM(485,6971) = 3380935 / 1
LCM(485,6971) = 3380935
