Lets's calculate LCM of 639,777
3 | 639, 777 |
213, 259 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 213 x 259 = 165501
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/165501
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6973/639,1788/777 is 1/165501
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 639,777 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(639,777) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(639,777) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(639,777) = ( 639 × 777 ) / 3
LCM(639,777) = 496503 / 3
LCM(639,777) = 165501
