We found the factors 1962,2952 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1962,2952 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 271,3267
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 885357
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/885357
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1962/271,2952/3267 is 18/885357
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 271,3267 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(271,3267) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(271,3267) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(271,3267) = ( 271 × 3267 ) / 1
LCM(271,3267) = 885357 / 1
LCM(271,3267) = 885357
