Lets's calculate LCM of 287,719
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 206353
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/206353
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 663/287,687/719 is 3/206353
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 287,719 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(287,719) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(287,719) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(287,719) = ( 287 × 719 ) / 1
LCM(287,719) = 206353 / 1
LCM(287,719) = 206353
