Lets's calculate LCM of 899,7133
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6412567
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 34/6412567
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6698/899,6868/7133 is 34/6412567
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 899,7133 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(899,7133) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(899,7133) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(899,7133) = ( 899 × 7133 ) / 1
LCM(899,7133) = 6412567 / 1
LCM(899,7133) = 6412567
