Lets's calculate LCM of 789,1157
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 912873
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/912873
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1558/789,9437/1157 is 1/912873
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 789,1157 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(789,1157) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(789,1157) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(789,1157) = ( 789 × 1157 ) / 1
LCM(789,1157) = 912873 / 1
LCM(789,1157) = 912873
