So the greatest common factor 209,452 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 960,491
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 471360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/471360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 209/960,452/491 is 1/471360
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 960,491 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(960,491) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(960,491) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(960,491) = ( 960 × 491 ) / 1
LCM(960,491) = 471360 / 1
LCM(960,491) = 471360
