Lets's calculate LCM of 967,8937
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8642079
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/8642079
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7608/967,6136/8937 is 8/8642079
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 967,8937 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(967,8937) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(967,8937) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(967,8937) = ( 967 × 8937 ) / 1
LCM(967,8937) = 8642079 / 1
LCM(967,8937) = 8642079
