Lets's calculate LCM of 767,3886
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2980562
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2980562
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7566/767,5542/3886 is 2/2980562
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 767,3886 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(767,3886) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(767,3886) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(767,3886) = ( 767 × 3886 ) / 1
LCM(767,3886) = 2980562 / 1
LCM(767,3886) = 2980562
