Lets's calculate LCM of 862,9221
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7948502
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 28/7948502
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1484/862,5992/9221 is 28/7948502
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 862,9221 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(862,9221) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(862,9221) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(862,9221) = ( 862 × 9221 ) / 1
LCM(862,9221) = 7948502 / 1
LCM(862,9221) = 7948502
