Lets's calculate LCM of 287,969
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 278103
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/278103
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 528/287,948/969 is 12/278103
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 287,969 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(287,969) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(287,969) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(287,969) = ( 287 × 969 ) / 1
LCM(287,969) = 278103 / 1
LCM(287,969) = 278103
