Lets's calculate LCM of 966,3589
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3466974
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/3466974
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 207/966,9243/3589 is 9/3466974
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 966,3589 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(966,3589) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(966,3589) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(966,3589) = ( 966 × 3589 ) / 1
LCM(966,3589) = 3466974 / 1
LCM(966,3589) = 3466974
