Lets's calculate LCM of 485,672
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 325920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/325920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8860/485,5482/672 is 2/325920
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 485,672 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(485,672) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(485,672) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(485,672) = ( 485 × 672 ) / 1
LCM(485,672) = 325920 / 1
LCM(485,672) = 325920
