Lets's calculate LCM of 893,159
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 141987
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/141987
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 896/893,8565/159 is 1/141987
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 893,159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(893,159) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(893,159) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(893,159) = ( 893 × 159 ) / 1
LCM(893,159) = 141987 / 1
LCM(893,159) = 141987
