Lets's calculate LCM of 842,7741
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6517922
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 53/6517922
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4717/842,3975/7741 is 53/6517922
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 842,7741 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(842,7741) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(842,7741) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(842,7741) = ( 842 × 7741 ) / 1
LCM(842,7741) = 6517922 / 1
LCM(842,7741) = 6517922
