So the greatest common factor 2155,8697 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 473,2103
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 994719
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/994719
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2155/473,8697/2103 is 1/994719
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 473,2103 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(473,2103) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(473,2103) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(473,2103) = ( 473 × 2103 ) / 1
LCM(473,2103) = 994719 / 1
LCM(473,2103) = 994719
