Lets's calculate LCM of 49,454
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 22246
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/22246
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 879/49,304/454 is 1/22246
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 49,454 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,454) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,454) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,454) = ( 49 × 454 ) / 1
LCM(49,454) = 22246 / 1
LCM(49,454) = 22246
