Lets's calculate LCM of 971,5285
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5131735
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 73/5131735
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2117/971,6132/5285 is 73/5131735
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 971,5285 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(971,5285) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(971,5285) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(971,5285) = ( 971 × 5285 ) / 1
LCM(971,5285) = 5131735 / 1
LCM(971,5285) = 5131735
