So the greatest common factor 3972,4065 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 447,5206
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2327082
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2327082
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3972/447,4065/5206 is 3/2327082
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 447,5206 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(447,5206) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(447,5206) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(447,5206) = ( 447 × 5206 ) / 1
LCM(447,5206) = 2327082 / 1
LCM(447,5206) = 2327082
