Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4958/878,5567/846 is 1/371394
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 878,846 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(878,846) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(878,846) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(878,846) = ( 878 × 846 ) / 2
LCM(878,846) = 742788 / 2
LCM(878,846) = 371394
