Lets's calculate LCM of 855,976
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 834480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/834480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9980/855,8596/976 is 4/834480
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 855,976 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(855,976) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(855,976) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(855,976) = ( 855 × 976 ) / 1
LCM(855,976) = 834480 / 1
LCM(855,976) = 834480
