Lets's calculate LCM of 461,6978
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3216858
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/3216858
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6201/461,1768/6978 is 13/3216858
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 461,6978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(461,6978) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(461,6978) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(461,6978) = ( 461 × 6978 ) / 1
LCM(461,6978) = 3216858 / 1
LCM(461,6978) = 3216858
