Lets's calculate LCM of 491,5407
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2654837
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 31/2654837
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4960/491,6541/5407 is 31/2654837
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 491,5407 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(491,5407) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(491,5407) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(491,5407) = ( 491 × 5407 ) / 1
LCM(491,5407) = 2654837 / 1
LCM(491,5407) = 2654837
