Lets's calculate LCM of 470,627
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 294690
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/294690
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 247/470,156/627 is 13/294690
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 470,627 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(470,627) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(470,627) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(470,627) = ( 470 × 627 ) / 1
LCM(470,627) = 294690 / 1
LCM(470,627) = 294690
