So the greatest common factor 8494,7684 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 841,6331
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5324371
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5324371
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8494/841,7684/6331 is 2/5324371
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 841,6331 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(841,6331) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(841,6331) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(841,6331) = ( 841 × 6331 ) / 1
LCM(841,6331) = 5324371 / 1
LCM(841,6331) = 5324371
