Lets's calculate LCM of 971,8682
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8430222
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/8430222
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8852/971,1336/8682 is 4/8430222
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 971,8682 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(971,8682) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(971,8682) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(971,8682) = ( 971 × 8682 ) / 1
LCM(971,8682) = 8430222 / 1
LCM(971,8682) = 8430222
