Lets's calculate LCM of 655,8939
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5855045
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5855045
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2818/655,5156/8939 is 2/5855045
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 655,8939 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(655,8939) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(655,8939) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(655,8939) = ( 655 × 8939 ) / 1
LCM(655,8939) = 5855045 / 1
LCM(655,8939) = 5855045
