Lets's calculate LCM of 152,5239
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 796328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/796328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4938/152,2746/5239 is 2/796328
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 152,5239 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(152,5239) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(152,5239) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(152,5239) = ( 152 × 5239 ) / 1
LCM(152,5239) = 796328 / 1
LCM(152,5239) = 796328
