So the greatest common factor 2849,5943 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 951,953
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 906303
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/906303
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2849/951,5943/953 is 7/906303
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 951,953 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(951,953) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(951,953) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(951,953) = ( 951 × 953 ) / 1
LCM(951,953) = 906303 / 1
LCM(951,953) = 906303
