Lets's calculate LCM of 12,253

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3036

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3036

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 236/12,530/253 is 2/3036

Least Common Multiple of 12,253 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 12,253 with GCF Formula

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 12,253 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(12,253) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(12,253) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(12,253) = ( 12 × 253 ) / 1

LCM(12,253) = 3036 / 1

LCM(12,253) = 3036
