Lets's calculate LCM of 999,5309
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5303691
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5303691
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4586/999,4538/5309 is 2/5303691
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 999,5309 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(999,5309) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(999,5309) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(999,5309) = ( 999 × 5309 ) / 1
LCM(999,5309) = 5303691 / 1
LCM(999,5309) = 5303691
