Lets's calculate LCM of 241,4721
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1137761
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1137761
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2404/241,4090/4721 is 2/1137761
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 241,4721 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(241,4721) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(241,4721) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(241,4721) = ( 241 × 4721 ) / 1
LCM(241,4721) = 1137761 / 1
LCM(241,4721) = 1137761
