Lets's calculate LCM of 397,961
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 381517
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/381517
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6579/397,8814/961 is 3/381517
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 397,961 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(397,961) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(397,961) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(397,961) = ( 397 × 961 ) / 1
LCM(397,961) = 381517 / 1
LCM(397,961) = 381517
