So the greatest common factor 9972,8922 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 857,4913
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4210441
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/4210441
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9972/857,8922/4913 is 6/4210441
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 857,4913 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(857,4913) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(857,4913) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(857,4913) = ( 857 × 4913 ) / 1
LCM(857,4913) = 4210441 / 1
LCM(857,4913) = 4210441
