Lets's calculate LCM of 934,3571
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3335314
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 21/3335314
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5271/934,9975/3571 is 21/3335314
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 934,3571 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(934,3571) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(934,3571) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(934,3571) = ( 934 × 3571 ) / 1
LCM(934,3571) = 3335314 / 1
LCM(934,3571) = 3335314
