Lets's calculate LCM of 877,253
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 221881
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/221881
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 267/877,5139/253 is 3/221881
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 877,253 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(877,253) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(877,253) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(877,253) = ( 877 × 253 ) / 1
LCM(877,253) = 221881 / 1
LCM(877,253) = 221881
