Lets's calculate LCM of 784,1971
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1545264
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1545264
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5908/784,4189/1971 is 1/1545264
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 784,1971 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(784,1971) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(784,1971) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(784,1971) = ( 784 × 1971 ) / 1
LCM(784,1971) = 1545264 / 1
LCM(784,1971) = 1545264
