Lets's calculate LCM of 529,7940
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4200260
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4200260
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7956/529,9255/7940 is 3/4200260
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 529,7940 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(529,7940) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(529,7940) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(529,7940) = ( 529 × 7940 ) / 1
LCM(529,7940) = 4200260 / 1
LCM(529,7940) = 4200260
