Lets's calculate LCM of 860,8077
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6946220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6946220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3171/860,5372/8077 is 1/6946220
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 860,8077 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(860,8077) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(860,8077) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(860,8077) = ( 860 × 8077 ) / 1
LCM(860,8077) = 6946220 / 1
LCM(860,8077) = 6946220
