Lets's calculate LCM of 899,719
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 646381
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/646381
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9966/899,6462/719 is 6/646381
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 899,719 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(899,719) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(899,719) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(899,719) = ( 899 × 719 ) / 1
LCM(899,719) = 646381 / 1
LCM(899,719) = 646381
