Lets's calculate LCM of 20,8909
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 178180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/178180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 976/20,466/8909 is 2/178180
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 20,8909 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,8909) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,8909) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(20,8909) = ( 20 × 8909 ) / 1
LCM(20,8909) = 178180 / 1
LCM(20,8909) = 178180
