Lets's calculate LCM of 502,9469
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4753438
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4753438
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1860/502,3158/9469 is 2/4753438
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 502,9469 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(502,9469) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(502,9469) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(502,9469) = ( 502 × 9469 ) / 1
LCM(502,9469) = 4753438 / 1
LCM(502,9469) = 4753438
