Lets's calculate LCM of 368,8797
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3237296
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/3237296
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8168/368,6440/8797 is 8/3237296
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 368,8797 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(368,8797) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(368,8797) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(368,8797) = ( 368 × 8797 ) / 1
LCM(368,8797) = 3237296 / 1
LCM(368,8797) = 3237296
