Lets's calculate LCM of 394,8107
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3194158
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3194158
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4344/394,8686/8107 is 2/3194158
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 394,8107 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(394,8107) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(394,8107) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(394,8107) = ( 394 × 8107 ) / 1
LCM(394,8107) = 3194158 / 1
LCM(394,8107) = 3194158
