Lets's calculate LCM of 491,3684
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1808844
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1808844
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6843/491,3307/3684 is 1/1808844
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 491,3684 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(491,3684) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(491,3684) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(491,3684) = ( 491 × 3684 ) / 1
LCM(491,3684) = 1808844 / 1
LCM(491,3684) = 1808844
