Lets's calculate LCM of 911,957
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 871827
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/871827
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5860/911,6852/957 is 4/871827
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 911,957 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(911,957) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(911,957) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(911,957) = ( 911 × 957 ) / 1
LCM(911,957) = 871827 / 1
LCM(911,957) = 871827
