Lets's calculate LCM of 887,3589
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3183443
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/3183443
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5180/887,9164/3589 is 4/3183443
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 887,3589 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(887,3589) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(887,3589) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(887,3589) = ( 887 × 3589 ) / 1
LCM(887,3589) = 3183443 / 1
LCM(887,3589) = 3183443
