Lets's calculate LCM of 421,9940
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4184740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 83/4184740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7636/421,7553/9940 is 83/4184740
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 421,9940 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(421,9940) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(421,9940) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(421,9940) = ( 421 × 9940 ) / 1
LCM(421,9940) = 4184740 / 1
LCM(421,9940) = 4184740
