Lets's calculate LCM of 257,3771
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 969147
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/969147
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5964/257,9919/3771 is 7/969147
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 257,3771 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(257,3771) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(257,3771) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(257,3771) = ( 257 × 3771 ) / 1
LCM(257,3771) = 969147 / 1
LCM(257,3771) = 969147
