Lets's calculate LCM of 829,642
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 532218
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 47/532218
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 893/829,4559/642 is 47/532218
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 829,642 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(829,642) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(829,642) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(829,642) = ( 829 × 642 ) / 1
LCM(829,642) = 532218 / 1
LCM(829,642) = 532218
