Lets's calculate LCM of 793,2962
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2348866
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2348866
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1986/793,1135/2962 is 1/2348866
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 793,2962 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(793,2962) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(793,2962) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(793,2962) = ( 793 × 2962 ) / 1
LCM(793,2962) = 2348866 / 1
LCM(793,2962) = 2348866
