So the greatest common factor 8371,8877 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 211,509
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 107399
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/107399
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8371/211,8877/509 is 11/107399
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 211,509 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(211,509) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(211,509) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(211,509) = ( 211 × 509 ) / 1
LCM(211,509) = 107399 / 1
LCM(211,509) = 107399
