Lets's calculate LCM of 601,687
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 412887
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/412887
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4661/601,6684/687 is 1/412887
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 601,687 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(601,687) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(601,687) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(601,687) = ( 601 × 687 ) / 1
LCM(601,687) = 412887 / 1
LCM(601,687) = 412887
