Lets's calculate LCM of 251,5622
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1411122
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1411122
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2948/251,3920/5622 is 4/1411122
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 251,5622 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(251,5622) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(251,5622) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(251,5622) = ( 251 × 5622 ) / 1
LCM(251,5622) = 1411122 / 1
LCM(251,5622) = 1411122
