Lets's calculate LCM of 367,7147
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2622949
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/2622949
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3969/367,8433/7147 is 9/2622949
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 367,7147 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(367,7147) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(367,7147) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(367,7147) = ( 367 × 7147 ) / 1
LCM(367,7147) = 2622949 / 1
LCM(367,7147) = 2622949
