Lets's calculate LCM of 542,4009
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2172878
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2172878
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9962/542,2783/4009 is 1/2172878
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 542,4009 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(542,4009) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(542,4009) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(542,4009) = ( 542 × 4009 ) / 1
LCM(542,4009) = 2172878 / 1
LCM(542,4009) = 2172878
