Lets's calculate LCM of 607,6331
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3842917
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3842917
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6914/607,7972/6331 is 2/3842917
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 607,6331 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(607,6331) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(607,6331) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(607,6331) = ( 607 × 6331 ) / 1
LCM(607,6331) = 3842917 / 1
LCM(607,6331) = 3842917
