Lets's calculate LCM of 373,821
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 306233
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/306233
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 853/373,7960/821 is 1/306233
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 373,821 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(373,821) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(373,821) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(373,821) = ( 373 × 821 ) / 1
LCM(373,821) = 306233 / 1
LCM(373,821) = 306233
