Lets's calculate LCM of 471,950
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 447450
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 127/447450
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 762/471,5461/950 is 127/447450
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 471,950 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(471,950) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(471,950) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(471,950) = ( 471 × 950 ) / 1
LCM(471,950) = 447450 / 1
LCM(471,950) = 447450
