Lets's calculate LCM of 636,9727
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6186372
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6186372
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8956/636,3030/9727 is 2/6186372
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 636,9727 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(636,9727) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(636,9727) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(636,9727) = ( 636 × 9727 ) / 1
LCM(636,9727) = 6186372 / 1
LCM(636,9727) = 6186372
