Lets's calculate LCM of 977,953
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 931081
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/931081
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2439/977,5978/953 is 1/931081
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 977,953 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(977,953) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(977,953) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(977,953) = ( 977 × 953 ) / 1
LCM(977,953) = 931081 / 1
LCM(977,953) = 931081
