Lets's calculate LCM of 121,977
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 118217
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/118217
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3798/121,7932/977 is 6/118217
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 121,977 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(121,977) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(121,977) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(121,977) = ( 121 × 977 ) / 1
LCM(121,977) = 118217 / 1
LCM(121,977) = 118217
