Lets's calculate LCM of 243,8638
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2099034
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2099034
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3727/243,3884/8638 is 1/2099034
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 243,8638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(243,8638) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(243,8638) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(243,8638) = ( 243 × 8638 ) / 1
LCM(243,8638) = 2099034 / 1
LCM(243,8638) = 2099034
