Lets's calculate LCM of 431,4968
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2141208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2141208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6915/431,2592/4968 is 3/2141208
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 431,4968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,4968) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,4968) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(431,4968) = ( 431 × 4968 ) / 1
LCM(431,4968) = 2141208 / 1
LCM(431,4968) = 2141208
