Lets's calculate LCM of 989,5838
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5773782
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/5773782
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3170/989,6490/5838 is 10/5773782
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 989,5838 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(989,5838) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(989,5838) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(989,5838) = ( 989 × 5838 ) / 1
LCM(989,5838) = 5773782 / 1
LCM(989,5838) = 5773782
