Lets's calculate LCM of 309,887
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 274083
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/274083
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9877/309,2078/887 is 1/274083
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 309,887 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(309,887) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(309,887) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(309,887) = ( 309 × 887 ) / 1
LCM(309,887) = 274083 / 1
LCM(309,887) = 274083
