So the greatest common factor 8967,8427 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 604,307
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 185428
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/185428
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8967/604,8427/307 is 3/185428
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 604,307 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(604,307) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(604,307) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(604,307) = ( 604 × 307 ) / 1
LCM(604,307) = 185428 / 1
LCM(604,307) = 185428
