Lets's calculate LCM of 529,977
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 516833
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/516833
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1708/529,1166/977 is 2/516833
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 529,977 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(529,977) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(529,977) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(529,977) = ( 529 × 977 ) / 1
LCM(529,977) = 516833 / 1
LCM(529,977) = 516833
