Lets's calculate LCM of 635,982
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 623570
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/623570
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 495/635,272/982 is 1/623570
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 635,982 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(635,982) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(635,982) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(635,982) = ( 635 × 982 ) / 1
LCM(635,982) = 623570 / 1
LCM(635,982) = 623570
