Lets's calculate LCM of 208,5459
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1135472
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1135472
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5260/208,8376/5459 is 4/1135472
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 208,5459 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(208,5459) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(208,5459) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(208,5459) = ( 208 × 5459 ) / 1
LCM(208,5459) = 1135472 / 1
LCM(208,5459) = 1135472
