Lets's calculate LCM of 277,8836
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2447572
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/2447572
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8988/277,2275/8836 is 7/2447572
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 277,8836 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(277,8836) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(277,8836) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(277,8836) = ( 277 × 8836 ) / 1
LCM(277,8836) = 2447572 / 1
LCM(277,8836) = 2447572
