Lets's calculate LCM of 897,8557
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7675629
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7675629
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 230/897,3417/8557 is 1/7675629
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 897,8557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(897,8557) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(897,8557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(897,8557) = ( 897 × 8557 ) / 1
LCM(897,8557) = 7675629 / 1
LCM(897,8557) = 7675629
