So the greatest common factor 8736,9908 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 904,639
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 577656
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/577656
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8736/904,9908/639 is 4/577656
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 904,639 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(904,639) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(904,639) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(904,639) = ( 904 × 639 ) / 1
LCM(904,639) = 577656 / 1
LCM(904,639) = 577656
