Lets's calculate LCM of 936,989
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 925704
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/925704
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1569/936,6816/989 is 3/925704
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 936,989 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(936,989) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(936,989) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(936,989) = ( 936 × 989 ) / 1
LCM(936,989) = 925704 / 1
LCM(936,989) = 925704
