Lets's calculate LCM of 788,499
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 393212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/393212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5234/788,6294/499 is 2/393212
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 788,499 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(788,499) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(788,499) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(788,499) = ( 788 × 499 ) / 1
LCM(788,499) = 393212 / 1
LCM(788,499) = 393212
