Lets's calculate LCM of 253,9987
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2526711
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2526711
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1787/253,9620/9987 is 1/2526711
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 253,9987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(253,9987) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(253,9987) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(253,9987) = ( 253 × 9987 ) / 1
LCM(253,9987) = 2526711 / 1
LCM(253,9987) = 2526711
