Lets's calculate LCM of 966,131
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 126546
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/126546
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8984/966,7701/131 is 1/126546
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 966,131 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(966,131) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(966,131) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(966,131) = ( 966 × 131 ) / 1
LCM(966,131) = 126546 / 1
LCM(966,131) = 126546
