Lets's calculate LCM of 628,129
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 81012
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/81012
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2877/628,2376/129 is 3/81012
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 628,129 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(628,129) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(628,129) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(628,129) = ( 628 × 129 ) / 1
LCM(628,129) = 81012 / 1
LCM(628,129) = 81012
