Lets's calculate LCM of 471,262
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 123402
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/123402
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 957/471,370/262 is 1/123402
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 471,262 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(471,262) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(471,262) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(471,262) = ( 471 × 262 ) / 1
LCM(471,262) = 123402 / 1
LCM(471,262) = 123402
