Lets's calculate LCM of 687,829
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 569523
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/569523
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 156/687,573/829 is 3/569523
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 687,829 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(687,829) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(687,829) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(687,829) = ( 687 × 829 ) / 1
LCM(687,829) = 569523 / 1
LCM(687,829) = 569523
