So the greatest common factor 9948,1068 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 477,9079
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4330683
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/4330683
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9948/477,1068/9079 is 12/4330683
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 477,9079 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(477,9079) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(477,9079) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(477,9079) = ( 477 × 9079 ) / 1
LCM(477,9079) = 4330683 / 1
LCM(477,9079) = 4330683
