Lets's calculate LCM of 498,971
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 483558
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/483558
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8279/498,6762/971 is 1/483558
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 498,971 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(498,971) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(498,971) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(498,971) = ( 498 × 971 ) / 1
LCM(498,971) = 483558 / 1
LCM(498,971) = 483558
