Lets's calculate LCM of 253,502
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 127006
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/127006
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1170/253,8253/502 is 9/127006
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 253,502 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(253,502) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(253,502) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(253,502) = ( 253 × 502 ) / 1
LCM(253,502) = 127006 / 1
LCM(253,502) = 127006
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
