Lets's calculate LCM of 277,3949
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1093873
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/1093873
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1136/277,6296/3949 is 8/1093873
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 277,3949 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(277,3949) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(277,3949) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(277,3949) = ( 277 × 3949 ) / 1
LCM(277,3949) = 1093873 / 1
LCM(277,3949) = 1093873
