Lets's calculate LCM of 871,5172
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4504812
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4504812
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8879/871,9131/5172 is 1/4504812
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 871,5172 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(871,5172) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(871,5172) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(871,5172) = ( 871 × 5172 ) / 1
LCM(871,5172) = 4504812 / 1
LCM(871,5172) = 4504812
