Lets's calculate LCM of 253,5540
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1401620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1401620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1275/253,7266/5540 is 3/1401620
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 253,5540 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(253,5540) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(253,5540) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(253,5540) = ( 253 × 5540 ) / 1
LCM(253,5540) = 1401620 / 1
LCM(253,5540) = 1401620
