Lets's calculate LCM of 787,3722
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2929214
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/2929214
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8441/787,7843/3722 is 23/2929214
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 787,3722 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(787,3722) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(787,3722) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(787,3722) = ( 787 × 3722 ) / 1
LCM(787,3722) = 2929214 / 1
LCM(787,3722) = 2929214
