So the greatest common factor 4236,7004 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 483,8921
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4308843
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4308843
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4236/483,7004/8921 is 4/4308843
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 483,8921 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(483,8921) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(483,8921) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(483,8921) = ( 483 × 8921 ) / 1
LCM(483,8921) = 4308843 / 1
LCM(483,8921) = 4308843
