Lets's calculate LCM of 687,3901
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2679987
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/2679987
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5863/687,1243/3901 is 11/2679987
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 687,3901 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(687,3901) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(687,3901) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(687,3901) = ( 687 × 3901 ) / 1
LCM(687,3901) = 2679987 / 1
LCM(687,3901) = 2679987
