Lets's calculate LCM of 661,981
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 648441
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/648441
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 950/661,3645/981 is 5/648441
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 661,981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(661,981) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(661,981) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(661,981) = ( 661 × 981 ) / 1
LCM(661,981) = 648441 / 1
LCM(661,981) = 648441
