Lets's calculate LCM of 244,4725
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1152900
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/1152900
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8420/244,2320/4725 is 20/1152900
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 244,4725 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(244,4725) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(244,4725) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(244,4725) = ( 244 × 4725 ) / 1
LCM(244,4725) = 1152900 / 1
LCM(244,4725) = 1152900
