Lets's calculate LCM of 493,285
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 140505
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/140505
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 468/493,755/285 is 1/140505
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 493,285 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(493,285) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(493,285) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(493,285) = ( 493 × 285 ) / 1
LCM(493,285) = 140505 / 1
LCM(493,285) = 140505
