Lets's calculate LCM of 492,551
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 271092
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/271092
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7940/492,9647/551 is 1/271092
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 492,551 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(492,551) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(492,551) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(492,551) = ( 492 × 551 ) / 1
LCM(492,551) = 271092 / 1
LCM(492,551) = 271092
