Lets's calculate LCM of 925,549
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 507825
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/507825
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 458/925,996/549 is 2/507825
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 925,549 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(925,549) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(925,549) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(925,549) = ( 925 × 549 ) / 1
LCM(925,549) = 507825 / 1
LCM(925,549) = 507825
