So the greatest common factor 2493,5425 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 373,372
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 138756
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/138756
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2493/373,5425/372 is 1/138756
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 373,372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(373,372) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(373,372) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(373,372) = ( 373 × 372 ) / 1
LCM(373,372) = 138756 / 1
LCM(373,372) = 138756
