Lets's calculate LCM of 976,5941
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5798416
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5798416
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5928/976,4838/5941 is 2/5798416
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 976,5941 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(976,5941) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(976,5941) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(976,5941) = ( 976 × 5941 ) / 1
LCM(976,5941) = 5798416 / 1
LCM(976,5941) = 5798416
