So the greatest common factor 5913,8991 is 81.
Lets's calculate LCM of 249,8851
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2203899
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 81/2203899
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5913/249,8991/8851 is 81/2203899
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 249,8851 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(249,8851) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(249,8851) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(249,8851) = ( 249 × 8851 ) / 1
LCM(249,8851) = 2203899 / 1
LCM(249,8851) = 2203899
