Lets's calculate LCM of 883,5465
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4825595
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/4825595
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 78/883,1937/5465 is 13/4825595
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 883,5465 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(883,5465) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(883,5465) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(883,5465) = ( 883 × 5465 ) / 1
LCM(883,5465) = 4825595 / 1
LCM(883,5465) = 4825595
