Lets's calculate LCM of 394,9863
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3886022
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 22/3886022
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2640/394,1958/9863 is 22/3886022
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 394,9863 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(394,9863) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(394,9863) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(394,9863) = ( 394 × 9863 ) / 1
LCM(394,9863) = 3886022 / 1
LCM(394,9863) = 3886022
