Lets's calculate LCM of 993,4072
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4043496
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4043496
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1126/993,2018/4072 is 2/4043496
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 993,4072 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(993,4072) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(993,4072) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(993,4072) = ( 993 × 4072 ) / 1
LCM(993,4072) = 4043496 / 1
LCM(993,4072) = 4043496
