Lets's calculate LCM of 867,2759
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2392053
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2392053
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6896/867,8587/2759 is 1/2392053
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 867,2759 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(867,2759) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(867,2759) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(867,2759) = ( 867 × 2759 ) / 1
LCM(867,2759) = 2392053 / 1
LCM(867,2759) = 2392053
