Lets's calculate LCM of 837,2915
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2439855
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2439855
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8918/837,3905/2915 is 1/2439855
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 837,2915 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(837,2915) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(837,2915) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(837,2915) = ( 837 × 2915 ) / 1
LCM(837,2915) = 2439855 / 1
LCM(837,2915) = 2439855
