Lets's calculate LCM of 299,7871
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2353429
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/2353429
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9426/299,3846/7871 is 6/2353429
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 299,7871 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(299,7871) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(299,7871) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(299,7871) = ( 299 × 7871 ) / 1
LCM(299,7871) = 2353429 / 1
LCM(299,7871) = 2353429
