Lets's calculate LCM of 656,9715
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6373040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6373040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3917/656,2779/9715 is 1/6373040
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 656,9715 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(656,9715) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(656,9715) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(656,9715) = ( 656 × 9715 ) / 1
LCM(656,9715) = 6373040 / 1
LCM(656,9715) = 6373040
