Lets's calculate LCM of 165,5618
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 926970
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/926970
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5971/165,9958/5618 is 1/926970
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 165,5618 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(165,5618) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(165,5618) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(165,5618) = ( 165 × 5618 ) / 1
LCM(165,5618) = 926970 / 1
LCM(165,5618) = 926970
