So the greatest common factor 4950,2538 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 101,653
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 65953
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/65953
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4950/101,2538/653 is 18/65953
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 101,653 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(101,653) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(101,653) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(101,653) = ( 101 × 653 ) / 1
LCM(101,653) = 65953 / 1
LCM(101,653) = 65953
