Lets's calculate LCM of 803,2018
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1620454
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1620454
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5978/803,5757/2018 is 1/1620454
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 803,2018 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(803,2018) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(803,2018) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(803,2018) = ( 803 × 2018 ) / 1
LCM(803,2018) = 1620454 / 1
LCM(803,2018) = 1620454
