Lets's calculate LCM of 967,8042
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7776614
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/7776614
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4296/967,2556/8042 is 12/7776614
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 967,8042 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(967,8042) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(967,8042) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(967,8042) = ( 967 × 8042 ) / 1
LCM(967,8042) = 7776614 / 1
LCM(967,8042) = 7776614
