Lets's calculate LCM of 253,1699
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 429847
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/429847
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3949/253,9361/1699 is 11/429847
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 253,1699 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(253,1699) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(253,1699) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(253,1699) = ( 253 × 1699 ) / 1
LCM(253,1699) = 429847 / 1
LCM(253,1699) = 429847
