So the greatest common factor 5264,4456 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 474,3631
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1721094
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/1721094
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5264/474,4456/3631 is 8/1721094
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 474,3631 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(474,3631) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(474,3631) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(474,3631) = ( 474 × 3631 ) / 1
LCM(474,3631) = 1721094 / 1
LCM(474,3631) = 1721094
