Lets's calculate LCM of 973,939
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 913647
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/913647
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5537/973,5063/939 is 1/913647
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 973,939 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(973,939) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(973,939) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(973,939) = ( 973 × 939 ) / 1
LCM(973,939) = 913647 / 1
LCM(973,939) = 913647
