Lets's calculate LCM of 438,979
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 428802
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/428802
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9139/438,6897/979 is 19/428802
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 438,979 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(438,979) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(438,979) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(438,979) = ( 438 × 979 ) / 1
LCM(438,979) = 428802 / 1
LCM(438,979) = 428802
