Lets's calculate LCM of 977,3291
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3215307
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3215307
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5533/977,8702/3291 is 1/3215307
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 977,3291 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(977,3291) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(977,3291) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(977,3291) = ( 977 × 3291 ) / 1
LCM(977,3291) = 3215307 / 1
LCM(977,3291) = 3215307
