Lets's calculate LCM of 787,5555
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4371785
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 61/4371785
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3477/787,4331/5555 is 61/4371785
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 787,5555 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(787,5555) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(787,5555) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(787,5555) = ( 787 × 5555 ) / 1
LCM(787,5555) = 4371785 / 1
LCM(787,5555) = 4371785
