Lets's calculate LCM of 971,8736
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8482656
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/8482656
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5762/971,5422/8736 is 2/8482656
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 971,8736 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(971,8736) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(971,8736) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(971,8736) = ( 971 × 8736 ) / 1
LCM(971,8736) = 8482656 / 1
LCM(971,8736) = 8482656
