Lets's calculate LCM of 969,872
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 844968
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/844968
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 580/969,788/872 is 4/844968
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 969,872 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(969,872) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(969,872) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(969,872) = ( 969 × 872 ) / 1
LCM(969,872) = 844968 / 1
LCM(969,872) = 844968
