Lets's calculate LCM of 809,251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 203059
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/203059
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3066/809,6538/251 is 14/203059
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 809,251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(809,251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(809,251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(809,251) = ( 809 × 251 ) / 1
LCM(809,251) = 203059 / 1
LCM(809,251) = 203059
