Lets's calculate LCM of 263,7857
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2066391
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/2066391
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6749/263,4862/7857 is 17/2066391
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 263,7857 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(263,7857) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(263,7857) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(263,7857) = ( 263 × 7857 ) / 1
LCM(263,7857) = 2066391 / 1
LCM(263,7857) = 2066391
