Lets's calculate LCM of 851,8994
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7653894
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/7653894
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 378/851,6685/8994 is 7/7653894
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 851,8994 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(851,8994) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(851,8994) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(851,8994) = ( 851 × 8994 ) / 1
LCM(851,8994) = 7653894 / 1
LCM(851,8994) = 7653894
