Lets's calculate LCM of 819,2987
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2446353
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2446353
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8631/819,4443/2987 is 3/2446353
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 819,2987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(819,2987) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(819,2987) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(819,2987) = ( 819 × 2987 ) / 1
LCM(819,2987) = 2446353 / 1
LCM(819,2987) = 2446353
