So the greatest common factor 1209,7347 is 93.
Lets's calculate LCM of 997,728
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 725816
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 93/725816
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1209/997,7347/728 is 93/725816
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 997,728 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(997,728) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(997,728) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(997,728) = ( 997 × 728 ) / 1
LCM(997,728) = 725816 / 1
LCM(997,728) = 725816
