Lets's calculate LCM of 431,5251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2263181
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2263181
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5086/431,3098/5251 is 2/2263181
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 431,5251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,5251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,5251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(431,5251) = ( 431 × 5251 ) / 1
LCM(431,5251) = 2263181 / 1
LCM(431,5251) = 2263181
