Lets's calculate LCM of 997,9601
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9572197
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9572197
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6889/997,9937/9601 is 1/9572197
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 997,9601 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(997,9601) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(997,9601) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(997,9601) = ( 997 × 9601 ) / 1
LCM(997,9601) = 9572197 / 1
LCM(997,9601) = 9572197
