Lets's calculate LCM of 466,1145
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 533570
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/533570
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8678/466,2198/1145 is 2/533570
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 466,1145 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(466,1145) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(466,1145) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(466,1145) = ( 466 × 1145 ) / 1
LCM(466,1145) = 533570 / 1
LCM(466,1145) = 533570
