Lets's calculate LCM of 341,5018
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1711138
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1711138
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3497/341,4857/5018 is 1/1711138
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 341,5018 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(341,5018) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(341,5018) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(341,5018) = ( 341 × 5018 ) / 1
LCM(341,5018) = 1711138 / 1
LCM(341,5018) = 1711138
