We found the factors 2999,3797 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2999,3797 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 550,6883
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3785650
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3785650
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2999/550,3797/6883 is 1/3785650
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 550,6883 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(550,6883) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(550,6883) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(550,6883) = ( 550 × 6883 ) / 1
LCM(550,6883) = 3785650 / 1
LCM(550,6883) = 3785650
