Lets's calculate LCM of 424,9255
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3924120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/3924120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7887/424,9426/9255 is 3/3924120
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 424,9255 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(424,9255) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(424,9255) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(424,9255) = ( 424 × 9255 ) / 1
LCM(424,9255) = 3924120 / 1
LCM(424,9255) = 3924120
