So the greatest common factor 3429,8508 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 121,965
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 116765
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/116765
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3429/121,8508/965 is 3/116765
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 121,965 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(121,965) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(121,965) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(121,965) = ( 121 × 965 ) / 1
LCM(121,965) = 116765 / 1
LCM(121,965) = 116765
