Lets's calculate LCM of 257,8115
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2085555
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2085555
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1947/257,3864/8115 is 3/2085555
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 257,8115 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(257,8115) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(257,8115) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(257,8115) = ( 257 × 8115 ) / 1
LCM(257,8115) = 2085555 / 1
LCM(257,8115) = 2085555
