So the greatest common factor 1265,2980 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 947,7104
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6727488
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/6727488
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1265/947,2980/7104 is 5/6727488
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 947,7104 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(947,7104) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(947,7104) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(947,7104) = ( 947 × 7104 ) / 1
LCM(947,7104) = 6727488 / 1
LCM(947,7104) = 6727488
