Lets's calculate LCM of 491,6146
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3017686
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3017686
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8236/491,6827/6146 is 1/3017686
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 491,6146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(491,6146) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(491,6146) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(491,6146) = ( 491 × 6146 ) / 1
LCM(491,6146) = 3017686 / 1
LCM(491,6146) = 3017686
