Lets's calculate LCM of 361,3953
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1427033
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 26/1427033
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9542/361,3640/3953 is 26/1427033
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 361,3953 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(361,3953) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(361,3953) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(361,3953) = ( 361 × 3953 ) / 1
LCM(361,3953) = 1427033 / 1
LCM(361,3953) = 1427033
