Lets's calculate LCM of 541,483
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 261303
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/261303
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8912/541,2738/483 is 2/261303
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 541,483 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(541,483) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(541,483) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(541,483) = ( 541 × 483 ) / 1
LCM(541,483) = 261303 / 1
LCM(541,483) = 261303
