Lets's calculate LCM of 872,8749
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7629128
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7629128
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3941/872,9368/8749 is 1/7629128
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 872,8749 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(872,8749) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(872,8749) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(872,8749) = ( 872 × 8749 ) / 1
LCM(872,8749) = 7629128 / 1
LCM(872,8749) = 7629128
