Lets's calculate LCM of 862,8923
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7691626
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7691626
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7257/862,4036/8923 is 1/7691626
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 862,8923 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(862,8923) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(862,8923) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(862,8923) = ( 862 × 8923 ) / 1
LCM(862,8923) = 7691626 / 1
LCM(862,8923) = 7691626
