Lets's calculate LCM of 437,997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 435689
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/435689
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7948/437,1058/997 is 2/435689
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 437,997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(437,997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(437,997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(437,997) = ( 437 × 997 ) / 1
LCM(437,997) = 435689 / 1
LCM(437,997) = 435689
