Lets's calculate LCM of 491,899
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 441409
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/441409
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2545/491,5756/899 is 1/441409
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 491,899 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(491,899) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(491,899) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(491,899) = ( 491 × 899 ) / 1
LCM(491,899) = 441409 / 1
LCM(491,899) = 441409
