Lets's calculate LCM of 981,984
3 | 981, 984 |
327, 328 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 327 x 328 = 321768
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/321768
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3661/981,9932/984 is 1/321768
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 981,984 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(981,984) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(981,984) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(981,984) = ( 981 × 984 ) / 3
LCM(981,984) = 965304 / 3
LCM(981,984) = 321768
