Lets's calculate LCM of 674,6973
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4699802
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4699802
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6897/674,7983/6973 is 3/4699802
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 674,6973 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(674,6973) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(674,6973) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(674,6973) = ( 674 × 6973 ) / 1
LCM(674,6973) = 4699802 / 1
LCM(674,6973) = 4699802
