So the greatest common factor 6240,6378 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 853,903
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 770259
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/770259
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6240/853,6378/903 is 6/770259
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 853,903 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(853,903) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(853,903) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(853,903) = ( 853 × 903 ) / 1
LCM(853,903) = 770259 / 1
LCM(853,903) = 770259
