Lets's calculate LCM of 946,5771
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5459366
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5459366
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6887/946,1435/5771 is 1/5459366
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 946,5771 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(946,5771) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(946,5771) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(946,5771) = ( 946 × 5771 ) / 1
LCM(946,5771) = 5459366 / 1
LCM(946,5771) = 5459366
