So the greatest common factor 7966,7932 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 317,189
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 59913
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/59913
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7966/317,7932/189 is 2/59913
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 317,189 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(317,189) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(317,189) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(317,189) = ( 317 × 189 ) / 1
LCM(317,189) = 59913 / 1
LCM(317,189) = 59913
