Lets's calculate LCM of 985,1637
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1612445
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1612445
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6899/985,4701/1637 is 1/1612445
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 985,1637 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(985,1637) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(985,1637) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(985,1637) = ( 985 × 1637 ) / 1
LCM(985,1637) = 1612445 / 1
LCM(985,1637) = 1612445
