Lets's calculate LCM of 929,1583
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1470607
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1470607
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3146/929,8842/1583 is 2/1470607
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 929,1583 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(929,1583) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(929,1583) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(929,1583) = ( 929 × 1583 ) / 1
LCM(929,1583) = 1470607 / 1
LCM(929,1583) = 1470607
