Lets's calculate LCM of 789,605
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 477345
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 37/477345
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 851/789,8140/605 is 37/477345
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 789,605 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(789,605) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(789,605) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(789,605) = ( 789 × 605 ) / 1
LCM(789,605) = 477345 / 1
LCM(789,605) = 477345
