Lets's calculate LCM of 491,3659
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1796569
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1796569
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8924/491,3504/3659 is 4/1796569
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 491,3659 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(491,3659) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(491,3659) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(491,3659) = ( 491 × 3659 ) / 1
LCM(491,3659) = 1796569 / 1
LCM(491,3659) = 1796569
