Lets's calculate LCM of 842,8581
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7225202
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7225202
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3921/842,5377/8581 is 1/7225202
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 842,8581 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(842,8581) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(842,8581) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(842,8581) = ( 842 × 8581 ) / 1
LCM(842,8581) = 7225202 / 1
LCM(842,8581) = 7225202
