Lets's calculate LCM of 131,488
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 63928
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/63928
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 529/131,3486/488 is 1/63928
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 131,488 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(131,488) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(131,488) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(131,488) = ( 131 × 488 ) / 1
LCM(131,488) = 63928 / 1
LCM(131,488) = 63928
