Lets's calculate LCM of 274,487
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 133438
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/133438
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6208/274,4187/487 is 1/133438
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 274,487 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(274,487) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(274,487) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(274,487) = ( 274 × 487 ) / 1
LCM(274,487) = 133438 / 1
LCM(274,487) = 133438
