Lets's calculate LCM of 376,879
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 330504
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/330504
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9506/376,4994/879 is 2/330504
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 376,879 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(376,879) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(376,879) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(376,879) = ( 376 × 879 ) / 1
LCM(376,879) = 330504 / 1
LCM(376,879) = 330504
