Lets's calculate LCM of 993,4702
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4669086
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4669086
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6998/993,6106/4702 is 2/4669086
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 993,4702 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(993,4702) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(993,4702) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(993,4702) = ( 993 × 4702 ) / 1
LCM(993,4702) = 4669086 / 1
LCM(993,4702) = 4669086
