Lets's calculate LCM of 89,8829
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 785781
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/785781
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 408/89,376/8829 is 8/785781
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 89,8829 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(89,8829) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(89,8829) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(89,8829) = ( 89 × 8829 ) / 1
LCM(89,8829) = 785781 / 1
LCM(89,8829) = 785781
