Lets's calculate LCM of 966,673
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 650118
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/650118
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5426/966,2720/673 is 2/650118
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 966,673 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(966,673) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(966,673) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(966,673) = ( 966 × 673 ) / 1
LCM(966,673) = 650118 / 1
LCM(966,673) = 650118
