So the greatest common factor 3960,8789 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 201,748
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 150348
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/150348
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3960/201,8789/748 is 11/150348
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 201,748 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(201,748) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(201,748) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(201,748) = ( 201 × 748 ) / 1
LCM(201,748) = 150348 / 1
LCM(201,748) = 150348
