Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8206/994,6848/2264 is 2/1125208
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 994,2264 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(994,2264) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(994,2264) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(994,2264) = ( 994 × 2264 ) / 2
LCM(994,2264) = 2250416 / 2
LCM(994,2264) = 1125208
