Lets's calculate LCM of 997,8766
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8739702
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/8739702
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5440/997,4860/8766 is 20/8739702
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 997,8766 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(997,8766) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(997,8766) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(997,8766) = ( 997 × 8766 ) / 1
LCM(997,8766) = 8739702 / 1
LCM(997,8766) = 8739702
