Lets's calculate LCM of 480,5911
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2837280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2837280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6931/480,4456/5911 is 1/2837280
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 480,5911 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(480,5911) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(480,5911) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(480,5911) = ( 480 × 5911 ) / 1
LCM(480,5911) = 2837280 / 1
LCM(480,5911) = 2837280
