Lets's calculate LCM of 973,599
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 582827
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/582827
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1926/973,7188/599 is 6/582827
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 973,599 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(973,599) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(973,599) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(973,599) = ( 973 × 599 ) / 1
LCM(973,599) = 582827 / 1
LCM(973,599) = 582827
