Lets's calculate LCM of 769,9671
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7436999
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/7436999
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3971/769,2204/9671 is 19/7436999
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 769,9671 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(769,9671) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(769,9671) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(769,9671) = ( 769 × 9671 ) / 1
LCM(769,9671) = 7436999 / 1
LCM(769,9671) = 7436999
