Lets's calculate LCM of 952,2721
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2590392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2590392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8430/952,1196/2721 is 2/2590392
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 952,2721 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(952,2721) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(952,2721) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(952,2721) = ( 952 × 2721 ) / 1
LCM(952,2721) = 2590392 / 1
LCM(952,2721) = 2590392
