Lets's calculate LCM of 862,769
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 662878
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/662878
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7935/862,8955/769 is 15/662878
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 862,769 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(862,769) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(862,769) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(862,769) = ( 862 × 769 ) / 1
LCM(862,769) = 662878 / 1
LCM(862,769) = 662878
