Lets's calculate LCM of 488,7387
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3604856
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3604856
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8497/488,7416/7387 is 1/3604856
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 488,7387 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(488,7387) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(488,7387) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(488,7387) = ( 488 × 7387 ) / 1
LCM(488,7387) = 3604856 / 1
LCM(488,7387) = 3604856
