Lets's calculate LCM of 760,3917
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2976920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/2976920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4446/760,9873/3917 is 9/2976920
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 760,3917 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(760,3917) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(760,3917) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(760,3917) = ( 760 × 3917 ) / 1
LCM(760,3917) = 2976920 / 1
LCM(760,3917) = 2976920
