Lets's calculate LCM of 242,7831
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1895102
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1895102
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8744/242,4682/7831 is 2/1895102
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 242,7831 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,7831) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,7831) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(242,7831) = ( 242 × 7831 ) / 1
LCM(242,7831) = 1895102 / 1
LCM(242,7831) = 1895102
