Lets's calculate LCM of 947,382
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 361754
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/361754
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1607/947,4432/382 is 1/361754
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 947,382 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(947,382) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(947,382) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(947,382) = ( 947 × 382 ) / 1
LCM(947,382) = 361754 / 1
LCM(947,382) = 361754
