Lets's calculate LCM of 897,7672
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6881784
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6881784
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7197/897,8836/7672 is 1/6881784
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 897,7672 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(897,7672) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(897,7672) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(897,7672) = ( 897 × 7672 ) / 1
LCM(897,7672) = 6881784 / 1
LCM(897,7672) = 6881784
