Lets's calculate LCM of 494,411
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 203034
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/203034
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4034/494,5996/411 is 2/203034
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 494,411 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(494,411) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(494,411) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(494,411) = ( 494 × 411 ) / 1
LCM(494,411) = 203034 / 1
LCM(494,411) = 203034
