So the greatest common factor 3747,4494 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 959,5510
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5284090
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/5284090
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3747/959,4494/5510 is 3/5284090
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 959,5510 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(959,5510) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(959,5510) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(959,5510) = ( 959 × 5510 ) / 1
LCM(959,5510) = 5284090 / 1
LCM(959,5510) = 5284090
