Lets's calculate LCM of 873,9808
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8562384
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/8562384
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1342/873,6540/9808 is 2/8562384
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 873,9808 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(873,9808) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(873,9808) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(873,9808) = ( 873 × 9808 ) / 1
LCM(873,9808) = 8562384 / 1
LCM(873,9808) = 8562384
