Lets's calculate LCM of 243,5956
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1447308
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/1447308
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6966/243,9306/5956 is 18/1447308
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 243,5956 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(243,5956) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(243,5956) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(243,5956) = ( 243 × 5956 ) / 1
LCM(243,5956) = 1447308 / 1
LCM(243,5956) = 1447308
