Lets's calculate LCM of 908,8527
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7742516
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 39/7742516
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2847/908,3939/8527 is 39/7742516
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 908,8527 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(908,8527) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(908,8527) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(908,8527) = ( 908 × 8527 ) / 1
LCM(908,8527) = 7742516 / 1
LCM(908,8527) = 7742516
