Lets's calculate LCM of 986,249
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 245514
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/245514
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3078/986,8693/249 is 1/245514
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 986,249 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(986,249) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(986,249) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(986,249) = ( 986 × 249 ) / 1
LCM(986,249) = 245514 / 1
LCM(986,249) = 245514
