So the greatest common factor 117,306 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 124,757
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 93868
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/93868
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 117/124,306/757 is 9/93868
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 124,757 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(124,757) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(124,757) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(124,757) = ( 124 × 757 ) / 1
LCM(124,757) = 93868 / 1
LCM(124,757) = 93868
