So the greatest common factor 2013,5373 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 473,223
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 105479
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/105479
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2013/473,5373/223 is 3/105479
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 473,223 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(473,223) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(473,223) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(473,223) = ( 473 × 223 ) / 1
LCM(473,223) = 105479 / 1
LCM(473,223) = 105479
