Lets's calculate LCM of 427,2298
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 981246
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/981246
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8398/427,4184/2298 is 2/981246
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 427,2298 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(427,2298) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(427,2298) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(427,2298) = ( 427 × 2298 ) / 1
LCM(427,2298) = 981246 / 1
LCM(427,2298) = 981246
