So the greatest common factor 4737,1680 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 977,2839
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2773703
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2773703
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4737/977,1680/2839 is 3/2773703
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 977,2839 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(977,2839) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(977,2839) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(977,2839) = ( 977 × 2839 ) / 1
LCM(977,2839) = 2773703 / 1
LCM(977,2839) = 2773703
