Lets's calculate LCM of 897,3959
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3551223
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/3551223
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4362/897,2550/3959 is 6/3551223
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 897,3959 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(897,3959) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(897,3959) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(897,3959) = ( 897 × 3959 ) / 1
LCM(897,3959) = 3551223 / 1
LCM(897,3959) = 3551223
