Lets's calculate LCM of 123,8701
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1070223
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 27/1070223
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1215/123,8397/8701 is 27/1070223
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 123,8701 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(123,8701) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(123,8701) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(123,8701) = ( 123 × 8701 ) / 1
LCM(123,8701) = 1070223 / 1
LCM(123,8701) = 1070223
