Lets's calculate LCM of 606,6749
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4089894
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4089894
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8472/606,6981/6749 is 3/4089894
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 606,6749 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(606,6749) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(606,6749) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(606,6749) = ( 606 × 6749 ) / 1
LCM(606,6749) = 4089894 / 1
LCM(606,6749) = 4089894
