Lets's calculate LCM of 402,6691
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2689782
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2689782
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8272/402,9340/6691 is 4/2689782
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 402,6691 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(402,6691) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(402,6691) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(402,6691) = ( 402 × 6691 ) / 1
LCM(402,6691) = 2689782 / 1
LCM(402,6691) = 2689782
