Lets's calculate LCM of 269,4989
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1342041
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1342041
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 168/269,5009/4989 is 1/1342041
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 269,4989 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(269,4989) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(269,4989) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(269,4989) = ( 269 × 4989 ) / 1
LCM(269,4989) = 1342041 / 1
LCM(269,4989) = 1342041
