Lets's calculate LCM of 163,2988
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 487044
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/487044
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5496/163,4061/2988 is 1/487044
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 163,2988 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(163,2988) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(163,2988) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(163,2988) = ( 163 × 2988 ) / 1
LCM(163,2988) = 487044 / 1
LCM(163,2988) = 487044
