Lets's calculate LCM of 473,9386
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4439578
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4439578
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4024/473,7222/9386 is 2/4439578
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 473,9386 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(473,9386) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(473,9386) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(473,9386) = ( 473 × 9386 ) / 1
LCM(473,9386) = 4439578 / 1
LCM(473,9386) = 4439578
