So the greatest common factor 3831,8896 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 241,9462
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2280342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2280342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3831/241,8896/9462 is 1/2280342
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 241,9462 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(241,9462) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(241,9462) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(241,9462) = ( 241 × 9462 ) / 1
LCM(241,9462) = 2280342 / 1
LCM(241,9462) = 2280342
