Lets's calculate LCM of 887,1846
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1637402
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1637402
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7450/887,6488/1846 is 2/1637402
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 887,1846 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(887,1846) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(887,1846) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(887,1846) = ( 887 × 1846 ) / 1
LCM(887,1846) = 1637402 / 1
LCM(887,1846) = 1637402
