Lets's calculate LCM of 464,5471
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2538544
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2538544
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5436/464,1388/5471 is 4/2538544
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 464,5471 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(464,5471) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(464,5471) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(464,5471) = ( 464 × 5471 ) / 1
LCM(464,5471) = 2538544 / 1
LCM(464,5471) = 2538544
