Lets's calculate LCM of 966,433
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 418278
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/418278
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 988/966,145/433 is 1/418278
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 966,433 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(966,433) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(966,433) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(966,433) = ( 966 × 433 ) / 1
LCM(966,433) = 418278 / 1
LCM(966,433) = 418278
