Lets's calculate LCM of 493,894
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 440742
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/440742
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 579/493,9460/894 is 1/440742
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 493,894 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(493,894) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(493,894) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(493,894) = ( 493 × 894 ) / 1
LCM(493,894) = 440742 / 1
LCM(493,894) = 440742
