Lets's calculate LCM of 505,7946
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4012730
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 106/4012730
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6572/505,8374/7946 is 106/4012730
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 505,7946 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(505,7946) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(505,7946) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(505,7946) = ( 505 × 7946 ) / 1
LCM(505,7946) = 4012730 / 1
LCM(505,7946) = 4012730
