Lets's calculate LCM of 469,285
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 133665
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 101/133665
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2929/469,4949/285 is 101/133665
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 469,285 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(469,285) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(469,285) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(469,285) = ( 469 × 285 ) / 1
LCM(469,285) = 133665 / 1
LCM(469,285) = 133665
