Lets's calculate LCM of 959,6530
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6262270
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/6262270
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5967/959,1649/6530 is 17/6262270
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 959,6530 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(959,6530) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(959,6530) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(959,6530) = ( 959 × 6530 ) / 1
LCM(959,6530) = 6262270 / 1
LCM(959,6530) = 6262270
