Lets's calculate LCM of 311,4794
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1490934
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1490934
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8524/311,1237/4794 is 1/1490934
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 311,4794 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(311,4794) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(311,4794) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(311,4794) = ( 311 × 4794 ) / 1
LCM(311,4794) = 1490934 / 1
LCM(311,4794) = 1490934
