So the greatest common factor 7892,8242 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 351,427
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 149877
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/149877
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7892/351,8242/427 is 2/149877
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 351,427 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(351,427) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(351,427) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(351,427) = ( 351 × 427 ) / 1
LCM(351,427) = 149877 / 1
LCM(351,427) = 149877
