Lets's calculate LCM of 149,8746
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1303154
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/1303154
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6594/149,8136/8746 is 6/1303154
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 149,8746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(149,8746) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(149,8746) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(149,8746) = ( 149 × 8746 ) / 1
LCM(149,8746) = 1303154 / 1
LCM(149,8746) = 1303154
