Lets's calculate LCM of 281,6629
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1862749
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1862749
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8912/281,8428/6629 is 4/1862749
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 281,6629 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(281,6629) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(281,6629) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(281,6629) = ( 281 × 6629 ) / 1
LCM(281,6629) = 1862749 / 1
LCM(281,6629) = 1862749
