Lets's calculate LCM of 932,3071
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2862172
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/2862172
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3012/932,1920/3071 is 12/2862172
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 932,3071 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(932,3071) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(932,3071) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(932,3071) = ( 932 × 3071 ) / 1
LCM(932,3071) = 2862172 / 1
LCM(932,3071) = 2862172
