Lets's calculate LCM of 551,8951
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4932001
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4932001
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2056/551,7997/8951 is 1/4932001
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 551,8951 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(551,8951) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(551,8951) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(551,8951) = ( 551 × 8951 ) / 1
LCM(551,8951) = 4932001 / 1
LCM(551,8951) = 4932001
