Lets's calculate LCM of 409,8242
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3370978
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3370978
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3915/409,2789/8242 is 1/3370978
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 409,8242 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(409,8242) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(409,8242) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(409,8242) = ( 409 × 8242 ) / 1
LCM(409,8242) = 3370978 / 1
LCM(409,8242) = 3370978
