Lets's calculate LCM of 971,4691
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4554961
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/4554961
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6930/971,5887/4691 is 7/4554961
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 971,4691 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(971,4691) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(971,4691) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(971,4691) = ( 971 × 4691 ) / 1
LCM(971,4691) = 4554961 / 1
LCM(971,4691) = 4554961
