So the greatest common factor 8466,8715 is 249.
Lets's calculate LCM of 291,5011
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1458201
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 249/1458201
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8466/291,8715/5011 is 249/1458201
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 291,5011 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(291,5011) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(291,5011) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(291,5011) = ( 291 × 5011 ) / 1
LCM(291,5011) = 1458201 / 1
LCM(291,5011) = 1458201
