Lets's calculate LCM of 959,704
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 675136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/675136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2029/959,5872/704 is 1/675136
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 959,704 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(959,704) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(959,704) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(959,704) = ( 959 × 704 ) / 1
LCM(959,704) = 675136 / 1
LCM(959,704) = 675136
