Lets's calculate LCM of 967,5569
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5385223
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5385223
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9938/967,1968/5569 is 2/5385223
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 967,5569 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(967,5569) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(967,5569) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(967,5569) = ( 967 × 5569 ) / 1
LCM(967,5569) = 5385223 / 1
LCM(967,5569) = 5385223
