Lets's calculate LCM of 485,9504
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4609440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4609440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1718/485,9968/9504 is 2/4609440
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 485,9504 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(485,9504) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(485,9504) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(485,9504) = ( 485 × 9504 ) / 1
LCM(485,9504) = 4609440 / 1
LCM(485,9504) = 4609440
