Lets's calculate LCM of 912,2943
3 | 912, 2943 |
304, 981 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 304 x 981 = 894672
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/894672
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9961/912,7406/2943 is 7/894672
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 912,2943 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(912,2943) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(912,2943) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(912,2943) = ( 912 × 2943 ) / 3
LCM(912,2943) = 2684016 / 3
LCM(912,2943) = 894672
