Lets's calculate LCM of 486,4729
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2298294
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2298294
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3807/486,9960/4729 is 3/2298294
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 486,4729 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(486,4729) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(486,4729) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(486,4729) = ( 486 × 4729 ) / 1
LCM(486,4729) = 2298294 / 1
LCM(486,4729) = 2298294
