Lets's calculate LCM of 883,9737
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8597771
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/8597771
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6846/883,9399/9737 is 3/8597771
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 883,9737 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(883,9737) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(883,9737) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(883,9737) = ( 883 × 9737 ) / 1
LCM(883,9737) = 8597771 / 1
LCM(883,9737) = 8597771
