Lets's calculate LCM of 955,7742
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7393610
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/7393610
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2967/955,2880/7742 is 3/7393610
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 955,7742 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(955,7742) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(955,7742) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(955,7742) = ( 955 × 7742 ) / 1
LCM(955,7742) = 7393610 / 1
LCM(955,7742) = 7393610
