Lets's calculate LCM of 203,1979
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 401737
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/401737
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6376/203,9816/1979 is 8/401737
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 203,1979 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(203,1979) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(203,1979) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(203,1979) = ( 203 × 1979 ) / 1
LCM(203,1979) = 401737 / 1
LCM(203,1979) = 401737
