Lets's calculate LCM of 957,5799
3 | 957, 5799 |
319, 1933 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 319 x 1933 = 1849881
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1849881
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4016/957,1974/5799 is 2/1849881
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 957,5799 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(957,5799) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(957,5799) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(957,5799) = ( 957 × 5799 ) / 3
LCM(957,5799) = 5549643 / 3
LCM(957,5799) = 1849881
