Lets's calculate LCM of 394,2593
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1021642
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1021642
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8616/394,8492/2593 is 4/1021642
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 394,2593 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(394,2593) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(394,2593) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(394,2593) = ( 394 × 2593 ) / 1
LCM(394,2593) = 1021642 / 1
LCM(394,2593) = 1021642
