So the greatest common factor 935,486 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 18,977
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17586
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17586
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 935/18,486/977 is 1/17586
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 18,977 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(18,977) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(18,977) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(18,977) = ( 18 × 977 ) / 1
LCM(18,977) = 17586 / 1
LCM(18,977) = 17586
