So the greatest common factor 472,8073 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 993,6709
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6662037
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6662037
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 472/993,8073/6709 is 1/6662037
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 993,6709 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(993,6709) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(993,6709) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(993,6709) = ( 993 × 6709 ) / 1
LCM(993,6709) = 6662037 / 1
LCM(993,6709) = 6662037
