So the greatest common factor 3202,2316 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 401,9919
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3977519
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3977519
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3202/401,2316/9919 is 2/3977519
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 401,9919 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(401,9919) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(401,9919) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(401,9919) = ( 401 × 9919 ) / 1
LCM(401,9919) = 3977519 / 1
LCM(401,9919) = 3977519
