So the greatest common factor 9970,6358 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,847
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 13552
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/13552
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9970/16,6358/847 is 2/13552
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 16,847 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,847) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(16,847) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(16,847) = ( 16 × 847 ) / 1
LCM(16,847) = 13552 / 1
LCM(16,847) = 13552
