Lets's calculate LCM of 917,4287
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3931179
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/3931179
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5271/917,2550/4287 is 3/3931179
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 917,4287 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(917,4287) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(917,4287) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(917,4287) = ( 917 × 4287 ) / 1
LCM(917,4287) = 3931179 / 1
LCM(917,4287) = 3931179
