Lets's calculate LCM of 979,656
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 642224
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/642224
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9221/979,1827/656 is 1/642224
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 979,656 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(979,656) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(979,656) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(979,656) = ( 979 × 656 ) / 1
LCM(979,656) = 642224 / 1
LCM(979,656) = 642224
