Lets's calculate LCM of 285,884
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 251940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/251940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5235/285,4183/884 is 1/251940
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 285,884 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(285,884) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(285,884) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(285,884) = ( 285 × 884 ) / 1
LCM(285,884) = 251940 / 1
LCM(285,884) = 251940
