Lets's calculate LCM of 155,8434
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1307270
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1307270
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6659/155,1379/8434 is 1/1307270
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 155,8434 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(155,8434) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(155,8434) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(155,8434) = ( 155 × 8434 ) / 1
LCM(155,8434) = 1307270 / 1
LCM(155,8434) = 1307270
