Lets's calculate LCM of 389,9049
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3520061
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/3520061
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7424/389,6492/9049 is 4/3520061
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 389,9049 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(389,9049) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(389,9049) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(389,9049) = ( 389 × 9049 ) / 1
LCM(389,9049) = 3520061 / 1
LCM(389,9049) = 3520061
