Lets's calculate LCM of 787,247
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 194389
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/194389
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 995/787,508/247 is 1/194389
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 787,247 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(787,247) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(787,247) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(787,247) = ( 787 × 247 ) / 1
LCM(787,247) = 194389 / 1
LCM(787,247) = 194389
