Lets's calculate LCM of 454,8235
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3738690
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/3738690
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5491/454,2318/8235 is 19/3738690
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 454,8235 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(454,8235) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(454,8235) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(454,8235) = ( 454 × 8235 ) / 1
LCM(454,8235) = 3738690 / 1
LCM(454,8235) = 3738690
