Lets's calculate LCM of 983,1212
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1191396
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1191396
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8520/983,8751/1212 is 3/1191396
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 983,1212 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(983,1212) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(983,1212) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(983,1212) = ( 983 × 1212 ) / 1
LCM(983,1212) = 1191396 / 1
LCM(983,1212) = 1191396
