Lets's calculate LCM of 255,973
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 248115
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/248115
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 276/255,9582/973 is 6/248115
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 255,973 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(255,973) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(255,973) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(255,973) = ( 255 × 973 ) / 1
LCM(255,973) = 248115 / 1
LCM(255,973) = 248115
