Lets's calculate LCM of 523,8493
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4441839
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4441839
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8212/523,2278/8493 is 2/4441839
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 523,8493 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(523,8493) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(523,8493) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(523,8493) = ( 523 × 8493 ) / 1
LCM(523,8493) = 4441839 / 1
LCM(523,8493) = 4441839
