We found the factors 396,8964 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 396,8964 is 36.
Lets's calculate LCM of 418,783
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 327294
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 36/327294
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 396/418,8964/783 is 36/327294
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 418,783 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(418,783) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(418,783) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(418,783) = ( 418 × 783 ) / 1
LCM(418,783) = 327294 / 1
LCM(418,783) = 327294
