So the greatest common factor 1042,7878 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 805,9321
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7503405
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/7503405
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1042/805,7878/9321 is 2/7503405
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 805,9321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(805,9321) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(805,9321) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(805,9321) = ( 805 × 9321 ) / 1
LCM(805,9321) = 7503405 / 1
LCM(805,9321) = 7503405
