So the greatest common factor 794,4951 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 966,5976
2 | 966, 5976 |
3 | 483, 2988 |
161, 996 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 161 x 996 = 962136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/962136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 794/966,4951/5976 is 1/962136
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 966,5976 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(966,5976) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(966,5976) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(966,5976) = ( 966 × 5976 ) / 6
LCM(966,5976) = 5772816 / 6
LCM(966,5976) = 962136
