Lets's calculate LCM of 783,997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 780651
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/780651
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2696/783,6358/997 is 2/780651
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 783,997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(783,997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(783,997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(783,997) = ( 783 × 997 ) / 1
LCM(783,997) = 780651 / 1
LCM(783,997) = 780651
