Lets's calculate LCM of 393,5524
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2170932
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 58/2170932
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8874/393,2842/5524 is 58/2170932
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 393,5524 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(393,5524) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(393,5524) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(393,5524) = ( 393 × 5524 ) / 1
LCM(393,5524) = 2170932 / 1
LCM(393,5524) = 2170932
