So the greatest common factor 8502,1642 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 707,9287
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6565909
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6565909
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8502/707,1642/9287 is 2/6565909
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 707,9287 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(707,9287) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(707,9287) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(707,9287) = ( 707 × 9287 ) / 1
LCM(707,9287) = 6565909 / 1
LCM(707,9287) = 6565909
