Lets's calculate LCM of 34,987
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 33558
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 77/33558
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 539/34,154/987 is 77/33558
Least Common Multiple of 34,987 with GCF Formula
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 34,987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(34,987) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(34,987) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(34,987) = ( 34 × 987 ) / 1
LCM(34,987) = 33558 / 1
LCM(34,987) = 33558
