So the greatest common factor 5500,8949 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 926,361
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 334286
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/334286
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5500/926,8949/361 is 1/334286
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 926,361 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(926,361) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(926,361) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(926,361) = ( 926 × 361 ) / 1
LCM(926,361) = 334286 / 1
LCM(926,361) = 334286
