Lets's calculate LCM of 971,2631
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2554701
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2554701
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8877/971,1207/2631 is 1/2554701
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 971,2631 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(971,2631) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(971,2631) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(971,2631) = ( 971 × 2631 ) / 1
LCM(971,2631) = 2554701 / 1
LCM(971,2631) = 2554701
