Lets's calculate LCM of 957,3148
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3012636
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3012636
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2966/957,9159/3148 is 1/3012636
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 957,3148 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(957,3148) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(957,3148) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(957,3148) = ( 957 × 3148 ) / 1
LCM(957,3148) = 3012636 / 1
LCM(957,3148) = 3012636
