Lets's calculate LCM of 757,873
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 660861
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/660861
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6609/757,3663/873 is 3/660861
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 757,873 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(757,873) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(757,873) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(757,873) = ( 757 × 873 ) / 1
LCM(757,873) = 660861 / 1
LCM(757,873) = 660861
