Lets's calculate LCM of 977,162
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 158274
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/158274
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 323/977,798/162 is 19/158274
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 977,162 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(977,162) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(977,162) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(977,162) = ( 977 × 162 ) / 1
LCM(977,162) = 158274 / 1
LCM(977,162) = 158274
