So the greatest common factor 5963,6942 is 89.
Lets's calculate LCM of 326,9241
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3012566
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 89/3012566
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5963/326,6942/9241 is 89/3012566
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 326,9241 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(326,9241) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(326,9241) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(326,9241) = ( 326 × 9241 ) / 1
LCM(326,9241) = 3012566 / 1
LCM(326,9241) = 3012566
