Lets's calculate LCM of 305,4862
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1482910
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1482910
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7209/305,9312/4862 is 3/1482910
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 305,4862 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(305,4862) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(305,4862) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(305,4862) = ( 305 × 4862 ) / 1
LCM(305,4862) = 1482910 / 1
LCM(305,4862) = 1482910
