Lets's calculate LCM of 496,5079
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2519184
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/2519184
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5640/496,6865/5079 is 5/2519184
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 496,5079 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(496,5079) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(496,5079) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(496,5079) = ( 496 × 5079 ) / 1
LCM(496,5079) = 2519184 / 1
LCM(496,5079) = 2519184
