Lets's calculate LCM of 203,8908
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1808324
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1808324
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9981/203,8437/8908 is 1/1808324
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 203,8908 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(203,8908) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(203,8908) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(203,8908) = ( 203 × 8908 ) / 1
LCM(203,8908) = 1808324 / 1
LCM(203,8908) = 1808324
