Lets's calculate LCM of 844,819
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 691236
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/691236
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8679/844,5977/819 is 1/691236
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 844,819 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(844,819) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(844,819) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(844,819) = ( 844 × 819 ) / 1
LCM(844,819) = 691236 / 1
LCM(844,819) = 691236
