So the greatest common factor 8889,5562 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 738,9607
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7089966
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/7089966
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8889/738,5562/9607 is 3/7089966
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 738,9607 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(738,9607) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(738,9607) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(738,9607) = ( 738 × 9607 ) / 1
LCM(738,9607) = 7089966 / 1
LCM(738,9607) = 7089966
