Lets's calculate LCM of 495,3743
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1852785
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1852785
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5708/495,8944/3743 is 4/1852785
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 495,3743 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(495,3743) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(495,3743) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(495,3743) = ( 495 × 3743 ) / 1
LCM(495,3743) = 1852785 / 1
LCM(495,3743) = 1852785
