Lets's calculate LCM of 937,4170
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3907290
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3907290
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8466/937,6854/4170 is 2/3907290
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 937,4170 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(937,4170) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(937,4170) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(937,4170) = ( 937 × 4170 ) / 1
LCM(937,4170) = 3907290 / 1
LCM(937,4170) = 3907290
