Lets's calculate LCM of 663,9971
13 | 663, 9971 |
51, 767 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 51 x 767 = 508521
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/508521
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4392/663,9886/9971 is 2/508521
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 663,9971 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(663,9971) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(663,9971) x common factors =13 x 1 = 13
LCM(663,9971) = ( 663 × 9971 ) / 13
LCM(663,9971) = 6610773 / 13
LCM(663,9971) = 508521
