Lets's calculate LCM of 53,572
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 30316
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/30316
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 966/53,519/572 is 3/30316
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 53,572 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,572) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,572) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,572) = ( 53 × 572 ) / 1
LCM(53,572) = 30316 / 1
LCM(53,572) = 30316
