Lets's calculate LCM of 873,8585
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7494705
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7494705
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5273/873,3485/8585 is 1/7494705
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 873,8585 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(873,8585) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(873,8585) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(873,8585) = ( 873 × 8585 ) / 1
LCM(873,8585) = 7494705 / 1
LCM(873,8585) = 7494705
