Lets's calculate LCM of 504,587
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 295848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/295848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9681/504,8355/587 is 3/295848
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 504,587 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(504,587) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(504,587) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(504,587) = ( 504 × 587 ) / 1
LCM(504,587) = 295848 / 1
LCM(504,587) = 295848
