Lets's calculate LCM of 529,4979
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2633891
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2633891
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3044/529,4878/4979 is 2/2633891
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 529,4979 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(529,4979) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(529,4979) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(529,4979) = ( 529 × 4979 ) / 1
LCM(529,4979) = 2633891 / 1
LCM(529,4979) = 2633891
