Lets's calculate LCM of 653,492
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 321276
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/321276
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5891/653,3939/492 is 1/321276
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 653,492 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(653,492) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(653,492) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(653,492) = ( 653 × 492 ) / 1
LCM(653,492) = 321276 / 1
LCM(653,492) = 321276
