Lets's calculate LCM of 785,9947
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7808395
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/7808395
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7238/785,1044/9947 is 2/7808395
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 785,9947 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(785,9947) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(785,9947) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(785,9947) = ( 785 × 9947 ) / 1
LCM(785,9947) = 7808395 / 1
LCM(785,9947) = 7808395
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
