Lets's calculate LCM of 435,8647
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3761445
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/3761445
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5931/435,4428/8647 is 9/3761445
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 435,8647 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(435,8647) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(435,8647) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(435,8647) = ( 435 × 8647 ) / 1
LCM(435,8647) = 3761445 / 1
LCM(435,8647) = 3761445
