Lets's calculate LCM of 901,6236
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5618636
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5618636
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6724/901,2339/6236 is 1/5618636
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 901,6236 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(901,6236) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(901,6236) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(901,6236) = ( 901 × 6236 ) / 1
LCM(901,6236) = 5618636 / 1
LCM(901,6236) = 5618636
