Lets's calculate LCM of 414,8527
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3530178
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3530178
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5558/414,9944/8527 is 2/3530178
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 414,8527 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(414,8527) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(414,8527) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(414,8527) = ( 414 × 8527 ) / 1
LCM(414,8527) = 3530178 / 1
LCM(414,8527) = 3530178
