Lets's calculate LCM of 533,4868
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2594644
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2594644
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3478/533,7026/4868 is 2/2594644
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 533,4868 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(533,4868) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(533,4868) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(533,4868) = ( 533 × 4868 ) / 1
LCM(533,4868) = 2594644 / 1
LCM(533,4868) = 2594644
