Lets's calculate LCM of 373,8602
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3208546
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/3208546
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3905/373,2460/8602 is 5/3208546
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 373,8602 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(373,8602) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(373,8602) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(373,8602) = ( 373 × 8602 ) / 1
LCM(373,8602) = 3208546 / 1
LCM(373,8602) = 3208546
