Lets's calculate LCM of 9481,8483
| 499 | 9481, 8483 |
| 19, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 499 x 19 x 17 = 161177
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/161177
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 705/9481,740/8483 is 5/161177
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 9481,8483 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9481,8483) = 499
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9481,8483) x common factors =499 x 1 = 499
LCM(9481,8483) = ( 9481 × 8483 ) / 499
LCM(9481,8483) = 80427323 / 499
LCM(9481,8483) = 161177
