Lets's calculate LCM of 339,8477
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2873703
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2873703
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1291/339,6989/8477 is 1/2873703
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 339,8477 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(339,8477) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(339,8477) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(339,8477) = ( 339 × 8477 ) / 1
LCM(339,8477) = 2873703 / 1
LCM(339,8477) = 2873703
