Lets's calculate LCM of 9542,5167
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 49303514
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/49303514
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 324/9542,338/5167 is 2/49303514
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 9542,5167 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9542,5167) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9542,5167) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(9542,5167) = ( 9542 × 5167 ) / 1
LCM(9542,5167) = 49303514 / 1
LCM(9542,5167) = 49303514
