Lets's calculate LCM of 461,4022
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1854142
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1854142
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6366/461,7438/4022 is 2/1854142
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 461,4022 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(461,4022) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(461,4022) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(461,4022) = ( 461 × 4022 ) / 1
LCM(461,4022) = 1854142 / 1
LCM(461,4022) = 1854142
