Lets's calculate LCM of 250,6961
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1740250
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1740250
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2836/250,8897/6961 is 1/1740250
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 250,6961 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(250,6961) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(250,6961) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(250,6961) = ( 250 × 6961 ) / 1
LCM(250,6961) = 1740250 / 1
LCM(250,6961) = 1740250
