Lets's calculate LCM of 671,8873
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5953783
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5953783
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1237/671,5969/8873 is 1/5953783
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 671,8873 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(671,8873) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(671,8873) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(671,8873) = ( 671 × 8873 ) / 1
LCM(671,8873) = 5953783 / 1
LCM(671,8873) = 5953783
