Lets's calculate LCM of 310,263
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 81530
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/81530
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4876/310,7272/263 is 4/81530
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 310,263 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(310,263) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(310,263) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(310,263) = ( 310 × 263 ) / 1
LCM(310,263) = 81530 / 1
LCM(310,263) = 81530
