So the greatest common factor 7497,2556 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 112,967
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 108304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/108304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7497/112,2556/967 is 9/108304
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 112,967 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(112,967) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(112,967) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(112,967) = ( 112 × 967 ) / 1
LCM(112,967) = 108304 / 1
LCM(112,967) = 108304
