Lets's calculate LCM of 959,5461
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5237099
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/5237099
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1446/959,8349/5461 is 3/5237099
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 959,5461 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(959,5461) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(959,5461) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(959,5461) = ( 959 × 5461 ) / 1
LCM(959,5461) = 5237099 / 1
LCM(959,5461) = 5237099
