Lets's calculate LCM of 961,874
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 839914
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/839914
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1641/961,6702/874 is 3/839914
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 961,874 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(961,874) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(961,874) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(961,874) = ( 961 × 874 ) / 1
LCM(961,874) = 839914 / 1
LCM(961,874) = 839914
