Lets's calculate LCM of 253,1467
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 371151
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/371151
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4941/253,7002/1467 is 9/371151
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 253,1467 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(253,1467) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(253,1467) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(253,1467) = ( 253 × 1467 ) / 1
LCM(253,1467) = 371151 / 1
LCM(253,1467) = 371151
