Lets's calculate LCM of 509,8786
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4472074
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4472074
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3760/509,5478/8786 is 2/4472074
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 509,8786 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(509,8786) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(509,8786) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(509,8786) = ( 509 × 8786 ) / 1
LCM(509,8786) = 4472074 / 1
LCM(509,8786) = 4472074
