Lets's calculate LCM of 841,7827
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6582507
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/6582507
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7688/841,6956/7827 is 4/6582507
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 841,7827 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(841,7827) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(841,7827) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(841,7827) = ( 841 × 7827 ) / 1
LCM(841,7827) = 6582507 / 1
LCM(841,7827) = 6582507
