Lets's calculate LCM of 606,163
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 98778
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/98778
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 987/606,5792/163 is 1/98778
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 606,163 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(606,163) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(606,163) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(606,163) = ( 606 × 163 ) / 1
LCM(606,163) = 98778 / 1
LCM(606,163) = 98778
