Lets's calculate LCM of 9988,1663
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 16610044
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/16610044
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 704/9988,526/1663 is 2/16610044
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 9988,1663 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9988,1663) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9988,1663) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(9988,1663) = ( 9988 × 1663 ) / 1
LCM(9988,1663) = 16610044 / 1
LCM(9988,1663) = 16610044
