Lets's calculate LCM of 877,1975
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1732075
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1732075
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3179/877,1818/1975 is 1/1732075
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 877,1975 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(877,1975) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(877,1975) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(877,1975) = ( 877 × 1975 ) / 1
LCM(877,1975) = 1732075 / 1
LCM(877,1975) = 1732075
