So the greatest common factor 8324,4238 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 131,4500
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 589500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/589500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8324/131,4238/4500 is 2/589500
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 131,4500 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(131,4500) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(131,4500) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(131,4500) = ( 131 × 4500 ) / 1
LCM(131,4500) = 589500 / 1
LCM(131,4500) = 589500
