Lets's calculate LCM of 85,203
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17255
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17255
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 532/85,663/203 is 1/17255
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 85,203 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(85,203) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(85,203) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(85,203) = ( 85 × 203 ) / 1
LCM(85,203) = 17255 / 1
LCM(85,203) = 17255
