Lets's calculate LCM of 978,1357
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1327146
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1327146
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7239/978,8845/1357 is 1/1327146
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 978,1357 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(978,1357) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(978,1357) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(978,1357) = ( 978 × 1357 ) / 1
LCM(978,1357) = 1327146 / 1
LCM(978,1357) = 1327146
