Lets's calculate LCM of 953,1235
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1176955
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/1176955
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1488/953,2124/1235 is 12/1176955
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 953,1235 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(953,1235) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(953,1235) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(953,1235) = ( 953 × 1235 ) / 1
LCM(953,1235) = 1176955 / 1
LCM(953,1235) = 1176955
