So the greatest common factor 6436,8274 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 937,130
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 121810
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/121810
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6436/937,8274/130 is 2/121810
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 937,130 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(937,130) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(937,130) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(937,130) = ( 937 × 130 ) / 1
LCM(937,130) = 121810 / 1
LCM(937,130) = 121810
