Lets's calculate LCM of 469,8492
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3982748
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3982748
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5916/469,2945/8492 is 1/3982748
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 469,8492 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(469,8492) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(469,8492) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(469,8492) = ( 469 × 8492 ) / 1
LCM(469,8492) = 3982748 / 1
LCM(469,8492) = 3982748
