Lets's calculate LCM of 793,862
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 683566
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/683566
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 856/793,389/862 is 1/683566
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 793,862 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(793,862) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(793,862) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(793,862) = ( 793 × 862 ) / 1
LCM(793,862) = 683566 / 1
LCM(793,862) = 683566
