Lets's calculate LCM of 941,638
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 600358
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/600358
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8502/941,4385/638 is 1/600358
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 941,638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(941,638) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(941,638) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(941,638) = ( 941 × 638 ) / 1
LCM(941,638) = 600358 / 1
LCM(941,638) = 600358
