Lets's calculate LCM of 271,6673
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1808383
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1808383
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5976/271,2667/6673 is 3/1808383
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 271,6673 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(271,6673) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(271,6673) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(271,6673) = ( 271 × 6673 ) / 1
LCM(271,6673) = 1808383 / 1
LCM(271,6673) = 1808383
