Lets's calculate LCM of 676,993
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 671268
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/671268
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7179/676,5602/993 is 1/671268
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 676,993 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(676,993) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(676,993) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(676,993) = ( 676 × 993 ) / 1
LCM(676,993) = 671268 / 1
LCM(676,993) = 671268
