Lets's calculate LCM of 214,8945
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1914230
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1914230
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7432/214,4132/8945 is 4/1914230
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 214,8945 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(214,8945) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(214,8945) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(214,8945) = ( 214 × 8945 ) / 1
LCM(214,8945) = 1914230 / 1
LCM(214,8945) = 1914230
