Lets's calculate LCM of 503,498
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 250494
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/250494
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4086/503,4344/498 is 6/250494
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 503,498 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(503,498) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(503,498) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(503,498) = ( 503 × 498 ) / 1
LCM(503,498) = 250494 / 1
LCM(503,498) = 250494
