Lets's calculate LCM of 496,8703
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4316688
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 96/4316688
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4608/496,1632/8703 is 96/4316688
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 496,8703 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(496,8703) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(496,8703) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(496,8703) = ( 496 × 8703 ) / 1
LCM(496,8703) = 4316688 / 1
LCM(496,8703) = 4316688
