Lets's calculate LCM of 473,5102
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2413246
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2413246
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6648/473,8493/5102 is 3/2413246
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 473,5102 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(473,5102) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(473,5102) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(473,5102) = ( 473 × 5102 ) / 1
LCM(473,5102) = 2413246 / 1
LCM(473,5102) = 2413246
