So the greatest common factor 1987,9585 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 768,8485
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6516480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6516480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1987/768,9585/8485 is 1/6516480
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 768,8485 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(768,8485) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(768,8485) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(768,8485) = ( 768 × 8485 ) / 1
LCM(768,8485) = 6516480 / 1
LCM(768,8485) = 6516480
