Lets's calculate LCM of 489,790
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 386310
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/386310
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2934/489,3658/790 is 2/386310
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 489,790 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(489,790) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(489,790) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(489,790) = ( 489 × 790 ) / 1
LCM(489,790) = 386310 / 1
LCM(489,790) = 386310
