Lets's calculate LCM of 378,9629
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3639762
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3639762
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5203/378,3739/9629 is 1/3639762
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 378,9629 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(378,9629) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(378,9629) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(378,9629) = ( 378 × 9629 ) / 1
LCM(378,9629) = 3639762 / 1
LCM(378,9629) = 3639762
