So the greatest common factor 853,255 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 470,653
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 306910
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/306910
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 853/470,255/653 is 1/306910
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 470,653 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(470,653) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(470,653) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(470,653) = ( 470 × 653 ) / 1
LCM(470,653) = 306910 / 1
LCM(470,653) = 306910
