Lets's calculate LCM of 947,2255
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2135485
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2135485
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3985/947,3668/2255 is 1/2135485
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 947,2255 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(947,2255) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(947,2255) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(947,2255) = ( 947 × 2255 ) / 1
LCM(947,2255) = 2135485 / 1
LCM(947,2255) = 2135485
