So the greatest common factor 3868,6486 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 30,373
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 11190
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/11190
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3868/30,6486/373 is 2/11190
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 30,373 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(30,373) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(30,373) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(30,373) = ( 30 × 373 ) / 1
LCM(30,373) = 11190 / 1
LCM(30,373) = 11190
