Lets's calculate LCM of 496,1967
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 975632
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/975632
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2356/496,5326/1967 is 2/975632
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 496,1967 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(496,1967) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(496,1967) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(496,1967) = ( 496 × 1967 ) / 1
LCM(496,1967) = 975632 / 1
LCM(496,1967) = 975632
