Lets's calculate LCM of 687,539
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 370293
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/370293
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 841/687,6936/539 is 1/370293
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 687,539 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(687,539) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(687,539) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(687,539) = ( 687 × 539 ) / 1
LCM(687,539) = 370293 / 1
LCM(687,539) = 370293
