Lets's calculate LCM of 716,177
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 126732
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/126732
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9897/716,1227/177 is 3/126732
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 716,177 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(716,177) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(716,177) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(716,177) = ( 716 × 177 ) / 1
LCM(716,177) = 126732 / 1
LCM(716,177) = 126732
