Lets's calculate LCM of 399,9634
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3843966
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/3843966
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8884/399,2344/9634 is 4/3843966
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 399,9634 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(399,9634) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(399,9634) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(399,9634) = ( 399 × 9634 ) / 1
LCM(399,9634) = 3843966 / 1
LCM(399,9634) = 3843966
