Lets's calculate LCM of 927,5066
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4696182
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4696182
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 879/927,3606/5066 is 3/4696182
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 927,5066 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(927,5066) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(927,5066) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(927,5066) = ( 927 × 5066 ) / 1
LCM(927,5066) = 4696182 / 1
LCM(927,5066) = 4696182
