So the greatest common factor 8872,1062 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 64,967
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 61888
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/61888
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8872/64,1062/967 is 2/61888
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 64,967 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(64,967) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(64,967) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(64,967) = ( 64 × 967 ) / 1
LCM(64,967) = 61888 / 1
LCM(64,967) = 61888
