Lets's calculate LCM of 661,6985
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4617085
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/4617085
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1764/661,9978/6985 is 6/4617085
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 661,6985 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(661,6985) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(661,6985) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(661,6985) = ( 661 × 6985 ) / 1
LCM(661,6985) = 4617085 / 1
LCM(661,6985) = 4617085
