Lets's calculate LCM of 442,5063
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2237846
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2237846
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6497/442,8558/5063 is 1/2237846
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 442,5063 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(442,5063) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(442,5063) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(442,5063) = ( 442 × 5063 ) / 1
LCM(442,5063) = 2237846 / 1
LCM(442,5063) = 2237846
