Lets's calculate LCM of 656,1481
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 971536
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/971536
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9917/656,3242/1481 is 1/971536
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 656,1481 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(656,1481) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(656,1481) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(656,1481) = ( 656 × 1481 ) / 1
LCM(656,1481) = 971536 / 1
LCM(656,1481) = 971536
