Lets's calculate LCM of 555,5968
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3312240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/3312240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9740/555,1050/5968 is 10/3312240
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 555,5968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(555,5968) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(555,5968) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(555,5968) = ( 555 × 5968 ) / 1
LCM(555,5968) = 3312240 / 1
LCM(555,5968) = 3312240
