Lets's calculate LCM of 642,8387
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5384454
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5384454
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8953/642,4311/8387 is 1/5384454
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 642,8387 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(642,8387) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(642,8387) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(642,8387) = ( 642 × 8387 ) / 1
LCM(642,8387) = 5384454 / 1
LCM(642,8387) = 5384454
