Lets's calculate LCM of 874,995
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 869630
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/869630
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 389/874,5272/995 is 1/869630
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 874,995 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(874,995) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(874,995) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(874,995) = ( 874 × 995 ) / 1
LCM(874,995) = 869630 / 1
LCM(874,995) = 869630
