Lets's calculate LCM of 321,8993
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2886753
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2886753
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1478/321,4808/8993 is 2/2886753
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 321,8993 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(321,8993) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(321,8993) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(321,8993) = ( 321 × 8993 ) / 1
LCM(321,8993) = 2886753 / 1
LCM(321,8993) = 2886753
