Lets's calculate LCM of 6072,1866
| 2 | 6072, 1866 |
| 3 | 3036, 933 |
| 1012, 311 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 1012 x 311 = 1888392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1888392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 796/6072,206/1866 is 2/1888392
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 6072,1866 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(6072,1866) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(6072,1866) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(6072,1866) = ( 6072 × 1866 ) / 6
LCM(6072,1866) = 11330352 / 6
LCM(6072,1866) = 1888392
