Lets's calculate LCM of 159,8746
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1390614
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1390614
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8897/159,1618/8746 is 1/1390614
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 159,8746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(159,8746) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(159,8746) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(159,8746) = ( 159 × 8746 ) / 1
LCM(159,8746) = 1390614 / 1
LCM(159,8746) = 1390614
