Lets's calculate LCM of 463,937
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 433831
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/433831
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2771/463,8704/937 is 17/433831
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 463,937 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(463,937) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(463,937) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(463,937) = ( 463 × 937 ) / 1
LCM(463,937) = 433831 / 1
LCM(463,937) = 433831
