Lets's calculate LCM of 497,6389
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3175333
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/3175333
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2748/497,3156/6389 is 12/3175333
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 497,6389 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(497,6389) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(497,6389) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(497,6389) = ( 497 × 6389 ) / 1
LCM(497,6389) = 3175333 / 1
LCM(497,6389) = 3175333
