Lets's calculate LCM of 517,9273
| 11 | 517, 9273 |
| 47, 843 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 47 x 843 = 435831
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/435831
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9704/517,2638/9273 is 2/435831
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 517,9273 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(517,9273) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(517,9273) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(517,9273) = ( 517 × 9273 ) / 11
LCM(517,9273) = 4794141 / 11
LCM(517,9273) = 435831
