Lets's calculate LCM of 271,993

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 269103

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/269103

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 78/271,60/993 is 6/269103

Least Common Multiple of 271,993 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 271,993 with GCF Formula

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 271,993 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(271,993) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(271,993) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(271,993) = ( 271 × 993 ) / 1

LCM(271,993) = 269103 / 1

LCM(271,993) = 269103
