Lets's calculate LCM of 509,6877
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3500393
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3500393
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4941/509,7159/6877 is 1/3500393
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 509,6877 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(509,6877) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(509,6877) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(509,6877) = ( 509 × 6877 ) / 1
LCM(509,6877) = 3500393 / 1
LCM(509,6877) = 3500393
