Lets's calculate LCM of 986,2531
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2495566
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2495566
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9714/986,8241/2531 is 3/2495566
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 986,2531 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(986,2531) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(986,2531) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(986,2531) = ( 986 × 2531 ) / 1
LCM(986,2531) = 2495566 / 1
LCM(986,2531) = 2495566
