Lets's calculate LCM of 977,305
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 297985
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/297985
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 666/977,8697/305 is 3/297985
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 977,305 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(977,305) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(977,305) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(977,305) = ( 977 × 305 ) / 1
LCM(977,305) = 297985 / 1
LCM(977,305) = 297985
