Lets's calculate LCM of 486,4259
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2069874
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 33/2069874
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8646/486,2079/4259 is 33/2069874
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 486,4259 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(486,4259) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(486,4259) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(486,4259) = ( 486 × 4259 ) / 1
LCM(486,4259) = 2069874 / 1
LCM(486,4259) = 2069874
