Lets's calculate LCM of 953,9949
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9481397
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9481397
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6837/953,8132/9949 is 1/9481397
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 953,9949 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(953,9949) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(953,9949) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(953,9949) = ( 953 × 9949 ) / 1
LCM(953,9949) = 9481397 / 1
LCM(953,9949) = 9481397
