Lets's calculate LCM of 980,9013
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8832740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/8832740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8740/980,4875/9013 is 5/8832740
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 980,9013 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(980,9013) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(980,9013) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(980,9013) = ( 980 × 9013 ) / 1
LCM(980,9013) = 8832740 / 1
LCM(980,9013) = 8832740
