Lets's calculate LCM of 879,1045
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 918555
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/918555
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2891/879,3570/1045 is 7/918555
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 879,1045 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(879,1045) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(879,1045) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(879,1045) = ( 879 × 1045 ) / 1
LCM(879,1045) = 918555 / 1
LCM(879,1045) = 918555
