So the greatest common factor 6084,2996 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 961,6982
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6709702
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/6709702
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6084/961,2996/6982 is 4/6709702
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 961,6982 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(961,6982) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(961,6982) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(961,6982) = ( 961 × 6982 ) / 1
LCM(961,6982) = 6709702 / 1
LCM(961,6982) = 6709702
