Lets's calculate LCM of 899,8838
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7945362
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7945362
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7240/899,6927/8838 is 1/7945362
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 899,8838 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(899,8838) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(899,8838) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(899,8838) = ( 899 × 8838 ) / 1
LCM(899,8838) = 7945362 / 1
LCM(899,8838) = 7945362
