Lets's calculate LCM of 788,593
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 467284
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/467284
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1965/788,3885/593 is 15/467284
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 788,593 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(788,593) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(788,593) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(788,593) = ( 788 × 593 ) / 1
LCM(788,593) = 467284 / 1
LCM(788,593) = 467284
