Lets's calculate LCM of 416,939
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 390624
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/390624
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9966/416,7162/939 is 2/390624
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 416,939 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(416,939) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(416,939) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(416,939) = ( 416 × 939 ) / 1
LCM(416,939) = 390624 / 1
LCM(416,939) = 390624
