Lets's calculate LCM of 842,6237
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5251554
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/5251554
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6924/842,1626/6237 is 6/5251554
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 842,6237 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(842,6237) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(842,6237) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(842,6237) = ( 842 × 6237 ) / 1
LCM(842,6237) = 5251554 / 1
LCM(842,6237) = 5251554
