Lets's calculate LCM of 495,634
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 313830
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/313830
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1486/495,4206/634 is 2/313830
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 495,634 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(495,634) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(495,634) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(495,634) = ( 495 × 634 ) / 1
LCM(495,634) = 313830 / 1
LCM(495,634) = 313830
