Lets's calculate LCM of 468,5501
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2574468
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2574468
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6420/468,4947/5501 is 3/2574468
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 468,5501 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(468,5501) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(468,5501) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(468,5501) = ( 468 × 5501 ) / 1
LCM(468,5501) = 2574468 / 1
LCM(468,5501) = 2574468
