Lets's calculate LCM of 973,924
7 | 973, 924 |
139, 132 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 139 x 132 = 128436
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/128436
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2699/973,5955/924 is 1/128436
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 973,924 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(973,924) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(973,924) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(973,924) = ( 973 × 924 ) / 7
LCM(973,924) = 899052 / 7
LCM(973,924) = 128436
