Lets's calculate LCM of 861,4978
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4286058
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4286058
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9187/861,3040/4978 is 1/4286058
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 861,4978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(861,4978) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(861,4978) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(861,4978) = ( 861 × 4978 ) / 1
LCM(861,4978) = 4286058 / 1
LCM(861,4978) = 4286058
