So the greatest common factor 8982,5061 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 643,1235
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 794105
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/794105
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8982/643,5061/1235 is 3/794105
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 643,1235 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(643,1235) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(643,1235) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(643,1235) = ( 643 × 1235 ) / 1
LCM(643,1235) = 794105 / 1
LCM(643,1235) = 794105
