So the greatest common factor 4172,8253 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 995,101
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 100495
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/100495
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4172/995,8253/101 is 7/100495
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 995,101 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(995,101) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(995,101) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(995,101) = ( 995 × 101 ) / 1
LCM(995,101) = 100495 / 1
LCM(995,101) = 100495
