Lets's calculate LCM of 40,9401
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 376040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/376040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 960/40,414/9401 is 6/376040
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 40,9401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,9401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,9401) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(40,9401) = ( 40 × 9401 ) / 1
LCM(40,9401) = 376040 / 1
LCM(40,9401) = 376040
