Lets's calculate LCM of 959,565
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 541835
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/541835
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8502/959,9468/565 is 6/541835
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 959,565 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(959,565) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(959,565) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(959,565) = ( 959 × 565 ) / 1
LCM(959,565) = 541835 / 1
LCM(959,565) = 541835
