Lets's calculate LCM of 787,6987
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5498769
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/5498769
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 80/787,3660/6987 is 20/5498769
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 787,6987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(787,6987) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(787,6987) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(787,6987) = ( 787 × 6987 ) / 1
LCM(787,6987) = 5498769 / 1
LCM(787,6987) = 5498769
