Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8477/284,3928/7970 is 1/1131740
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 284,7970 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(284,7970) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(284,7970) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(284,7970) = ( 284 × 7970 ) / 2
LCM(284,7970) = 2263480 / 2
LCM(284,7970) = 1131740
