Lets's calculate LCM of 474,7501
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3555474
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 85/3555474
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5440/474,2635/7501 is 85/3555474
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 474,7501 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(474,7501) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(474,7501) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(474,7501) = ( 474 × 7501 ) / 1
LCM(474,7501) = 3555474 / 1
LCM(474,7501) = 3555474
