Lets's calculate LCM of 973,2789
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2713697
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2713697
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9226/973,3562/2789 is 2/2713697
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 973,2789 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(973,2789) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(973,2789) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(973,2789) = ( 973 × 2789 ) / 1
LCM(973,2789) = 2713697 / 1
LCM(973,2789) = 2713697
