Lets's calculate LCM of 977,247
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 241319
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/241319
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7186/977,5018/247 is 2/241319
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 977,247 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(977,247) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(977,247) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(977,247) = ( 977 × 247 ) / 1
LCM(977,247) = 241319 / 1
LCM(977,247) = 241319
