So the greatest common factor 8422,6792 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 854,5939
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5071906
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5071906
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8422/854,6792/5939 is 2/5071906
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 854,5939 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(854,5939) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(854,5939) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(854,5939) = ( 854 × 5939 ) / 1
LCM(854,5939) = 5071906 / 1
LCM(854,5939) = 5071906
