So the greatest common factor 964,948 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 947,269
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 254743
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/254743
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 964/947,948/269 is 4/254743
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 947,269 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(947,269) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(947,269) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(947,269) = ( 947 × 269 ) / 1
LCM(947,269) = 254743 / 1
LCM(947,269) = 254743
