Lets's calculate LCM of 987,391
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 385917
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/385917
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9522/987,3112/391 is 2/385917
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 987,391 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(987,391) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(987,391) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(987,391) = ( 987 × 391 ) / 1
LCM(987,391) = 385917 / 1
LCM(987,391) = 385917
