So the greatest common factor 262,760 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 39,9557
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 372723
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/372723
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 262/39,760/9557 is 2/372723
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 39,9557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(39,9557) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(39,9557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(39,9557) = ( 39 × 9557 ) / 1
LCM(39,9557) = 372723 / 1
LCM(39,9557) = 372723
