Lets's calculate LCM of 287,9413
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2701531
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2701531
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5043/287,7878/9413 is 3/2701531
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 287,9413 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(287,9413) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(287,9413) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(287,9413) = ( 287 × 9413 ) / 1
LCM(287,9413) = 2701531 / 1
LCM(287,9413) = 2701531
