Lets's calculate LCM of 279,9260
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2583540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 158/2583540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3634/279,8690/9260 is 158/2583540
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 279,9260 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(279,9260) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(279,9260) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(279,9260) = ( 279 × 9260 ) / 1
LCM(279,9260) = 2583540 / 1
LCM(279,9260) = 2583540
