Lets's calculate LCM of 431,681
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 293511
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/293511
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6892/431,3496/681 is 4/293511
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 431,681 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,681) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,681) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(431,681) = ( 431 × 681 ) / 1
LCM(431,681) = 293511 / 1
LCM(431,681) = 293511
