So the greatest common factor 495,490 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 244,785
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 191540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/191540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 495/244,490/785 is 5/191540
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 244,785 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(244,785) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(244,785) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(244,785) = ( 244 × 785 ) / 1
LCM(244,785) = 191540 / 1
LCM(244,785) = 191540
