Lets's calculate LCM of 917,5079
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4657443
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4657443
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8900/917,7956/5079 is 4/4657443
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 917,5079 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(917,5079) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(917,5079) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(917,5079) = ( 917 × 5079 ) / 1
LCM(917,5079) = 4657443 / 1
LCM(917,5079) = 4657443
