Lets's calculate LCM of 491,8661
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4252551
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4252551
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3684/491,4855/8661 is 1/4252551
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 491,8661 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(491,8661) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(491,8661) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(491,8661) = ( 491 × 8661 ) / 1
LCM(491,8661) = 4252551 / 1
LCM(491,8661) = 4252551
