Lets's calculate LCM of 253,7612
11 | 253, 7612 |
23, 692 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 23 x 692 = 175076
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/175076
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4266/253,1182/7612 is 6/175076
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 253,7612 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(253,7612) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(253,7612) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(253,7612) = ( 253 × 7612 ) / 11
LCM(253,7612) = 1925836 / 11
LCM(253,7612) = 175076
