Lets's calculate LCM of 947,4877
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4618519
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4618519
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7297/947,6372/4877 is 1/4618519
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 947,4877 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(947,4877) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(947,4877) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(947,4877) = ( 947 × 4877 ) / 1
LCM(947,4877) = 4618519 / 1
LCM(947,4877) = 4618519
