Lets's calculate LCM of 96,247
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 23712
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 31/23712
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4371/96,3875/247 is 31/23712
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 96,247 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(96,247) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(96,247) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(96,247) = ( 96 × 247 ) / 1
LCM(96,247) = 23712 / 1
LCM(96,247) = 23712
