Lets's calculate LCM of 257,9308
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2392156
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 73/2392156
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7081/257,5986/9308 is 73/2392156
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 257,9308 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(257,9308) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(257,9308) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(257,9308) = ( 257 × 9308 ) / 1
LCM(257,9308) = 2392156 / 1
LCM(257,9308) = 2392156
