Lets's calculate LCM of 989,1529
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1512181
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1512181
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6891/989,4990/1529 is 1/1512181
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 989,1529 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(989,1529) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(989,1529) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(989,1529) = ( 989 × 1529 ) / 1
LCM(989,1529) = 1512181 / 1
LCM(989,1529) = 1512181
