Lets's calculate LCM of 267,251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 67017
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/67017
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6325/267,5962/251 is 11/67017
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 267,251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(267,251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(267,251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(267,251) = ( 267 × 251 ) / 1
LCM(267,251) = 67017 / 1
LCM(267,251) = 67017
