Lets's calculate LCM of 791,2879
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2277289
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2277289
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2431/791,9535/2879 is 1/2277289
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 791,2879 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(791,2879) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(791,2879) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(791,2879) = ( 791 × 2879 ) / 1
LCM(791,2879) = 2277289 / 1
LCM(791,2879) = 2277289
