Lets's calculate LCM of 295,9509
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2805155
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2805155
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1426/295,9538/9509 is 2/2805155
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 295,9509 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(295,9509) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(295,9509) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(295,9509) = ( 295 × 9509 ) / 1
LCM(295,9509) = 2805155 / 1
LCM(295,9509) = 2805155
