Lets's calculate LCM of 959,9138
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8763342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8763342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6996/959,4967/9138 is 1/8763342
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 959,9138 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(959,9138) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(959,9138) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(959,9138) = ( 959 × 9138 ) / 1
LCM(959,9138) = 8763342 / 1
LCM(959,9138) = 8763342
