Lets's calculate LCM of 989,772
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 763508
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/763508
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8555/989,4617/772 is 1/763508
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 989,772 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(989,772) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(989,772) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(989,772) = ( 989 × 772 ) / 1
LCM(989,772) = 763508 / 1
LCM(989,772) = 763508
