We found the factors 9675,2040 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9675,2040 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 291,797
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 231927
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/231927
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9675/291,2040/797 is 15/231927
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 291,797 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(291,797) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(291,797) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(291,797) = ( 291 × 797 ) / 1
LCM(291,797) = 231927 / 1
LCM(291,797) = 231927
