Lets's calculate LCM of 273,773
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 211029
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/211029
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 887/273,836/773 is 1/211029
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 273,773 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(273,773) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(273,773) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(273,773) = ( 273 × 773 ) / 1
LCM(273,773) = 211029 / 1
LCM(273,773) = 211029
