Lets's calculate LCM of 403,8874
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3576222
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3576222
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7712/403,2642/8874 is 2/3576222
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 403,8874 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(403,8874) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(403,8874) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(403,8874) = ( 403 × 8874 ) / 1
LCM(403,8874) = 3576222 / 1
LCM(403,8874) = 3576222
