Lets's calculate LCM of 947,5318
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5036146
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/5036146
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5924/947,4440/5318 is 4/5036146
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 947,5318 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(947,5318) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(947,5318) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(947,5318) = ( 947 × 5318 ) / 1
LCM(947,5318) = 5036146 / 1
LCM(947,5318) = 5036146
