Lets's calculate LCM of 421,9256
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3896776
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3896776
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4099/421,8987/9256 is 1/3896776
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 421,9256 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(421,9256) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(421,9256) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(421,9256) = ( 421 × 9256 ) / 1
LCM(421,9256) = 3896776 / 1
LCM(421,9256) = 3896776
