Lets's calculate LCM of 856,1121
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 959576
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/959576
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6488/856,7979/1121 is 1/959576
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 856,1121 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(856,1121) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(856,1121) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(856,1121) = ( 856 × 1121 ) / 1
LCM(856,1121) = 959576 / 1
LCM(856,1121) = 959576
