So the greatest common factor 5949,1701 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 679,7853
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5332187
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/5332187
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5949/679,1701/7853 is 9/5332187
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 679,7853 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(679,7853) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(679,7853) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(679,7853) = ( 679 × 7853 ) / 1
LCM(679,7853) = 5332187 / 1
LCM(679,7853) = 5332187
