Lets's calculate LCM of 966,8221
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7941486
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/7941486
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 246/966,6050/8221 is 2/7941486
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 966,8221 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(966,8221) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(966,8221) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(966,8221) = ( 966 × 8221 ) / 1
LCM(966,8221) = 7941486 / 1
LCM(966,8221) = 7941486
