Lets's calculate LCM of 293,1527
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 447411
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/447411
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5526/293,5121/1527 is 9/447411
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 293,1527 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(293,1527) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(293,1527) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(293,1527) = ( 293 × 1527 ) / 1
LCM(293,1527) = 447411 / 1
LCM(293,1527) = 447411
