Lets's calculate LCM of 868,9379
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8140972
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/8140972
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3156/868,3194/9379 is 2/8140972
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 868,9379 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(868,9379) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(868,9379) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(868,9379) = ( 868 × 9379 ) / 1
LCM(868,9379) = 8140972 / 1
LCM(868,9379) = 8140972
