Lets's calculate LCM of 596,9409
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5607764
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 36/5607764
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1404/596,4248/9409 is 36/5607764
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 596,9409 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(596,9409) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(596,9409) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(596,9409) = ( 596 × 9409 ) / 1
LCM(596,9409) = 5607764 / 1
LCM(596,9409) = 5607764
