Lets's calculate LCM of 469,9633
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4517877
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/4517877
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3730/469,1185/9633 is 5/4517877
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 469,9633 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(469,9633) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(469,9633) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(469,9633) = ( 469 × 9633 ) / 1
LCM(469,9633) = 4517877 / 1
LCM(469,9633) = 4517877
