Lets's calculate LCM of 503,9495
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4775985
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4775985
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5959/503,4642/9495 is 1/4775985
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 503,9495 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(503,9495) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(503,9495) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(503,9495) = ( 503 × 9495 ) / 1
LCM(503,9495) = 4775985 / 1
LCM(503,9495) = 4775985
