Lets's calculate LCM of 656,8981
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5891536
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5891536
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7271/656,8423/8981 is 1/5891536
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 656,8981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(656,8981) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(656,8981) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(656,8981) = ( 656 × 8981 ) / 1
LCM(656,8981) = 5891536 / 1
LCM(656,8981) = 5891536
