Lets's calculate LCM of 180,6881
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1238580
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 498/1238580
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 996/180,8466/6881 is 498/1238580
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 180,6881 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(180,6881) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(180,6881) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(180,6881) = ( 180 × 6881 ) / 1
LCM(180,6881) = 1238580 / 1
LCM(180,6881) = 1238580
