Lets's calculate LCM of 947,5819
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5510593
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5510593
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2546/947,1977/5819 is 1/5510593
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 947,5819 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(947,5819) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(947,5819) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(947,5819) = ( 947 × 5819 ) / 1
LCM(947,5819) = 5510593 / 1
LCM(947,5819) = 5510593
