Lets's calculate LCM of 885,3862
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3417870
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3417870
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8838/885,3401/3862 is 1/3417870
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 885,3862 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(885,3862) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(885,3862) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(885,3862) = ( 885 × 3862 ) / 1
LCM(885,3862) = 3417870 / 1
LCM(885,3862) = 3417870
