Lets's calculate LCM of 247,8856
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2187432
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/2187432
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6147/247,6561/8856 is 9/2187432
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 247,8856 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(247,8856) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(247,8856) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(247,8856) = ( 247 × 8856 ) / 1
LCM(247,8856) = 2187432 / 1
LCM(247,8856) = 2187432
