Lets's calculate LCM of 986,5347
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5272142
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5272142
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 98/986,2756/5347 is 2/5272142
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 986,5347 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(986,5347) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(986,5347) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(986,5347) = ( 986 × 5347 ) / 1
LCM(986,5347) = 5272142 / 1
LCM(986,5347) = 5272142
