Lets's calculate LCM of 867,4552
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3946584
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/3946584
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5552/867,9400/4552 is 8/3946584
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 867,4552 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(867,4552) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(867,4552) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(867,4552) = ( 867 × 4552 ) / 1
LCM(867,4552) = 3946584 / 1
LCM(867,4552) = 3946584
