Lets's calculate LCM of 585,1979
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1157715
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1157715
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7326/585,9470/1979 is 2/1157715
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 585,1979 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(585,1979) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(585,1979) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(585,1979) = ( 585 × 1979 ) / 1
LCM(585,1979) = 1157715 / 1
LCM(585,1979) = 1157715
