Lets's calculate LCM of 191,4642
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 886622
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/886622
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1079/191,2877/4642 is 1/886622
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 191,4642 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(191,4642) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(191,4642) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(191,4642) = ( 191 × 4642 ) / 1
LCM(191,4642) = 886622 / 1
LCM(191,4642) = 886622
