Lets's calculate LCM of 835,6587
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5500145
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5500145
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4171/835,1284/6587 is 1/5500145
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 835,6587 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(835,6587) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(835,6587) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(835,6587) = ( 835 × 6587 ) / 1
LCM(835,6587) = 5500145 / 1
LCM(835,6587) = 5500145
