So the greatest common factor 961,270 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 251,286
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 71786
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/71786
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 961/251,270/286 is 1/71786
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 251,286 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(251,286) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(251,286) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(251,286) = ( 251 × 286 ) / 1
LCM(251,286) = 71786 / 1
LCM(251,286) = 71786
