Lets's calculate LCM of 486,1199
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 582714
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/582714
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9256/486,4440/1199 is 8/582714
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 486,1199 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(486,1199) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(486,1199) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(486,1199) = ( 486 × 1199 ) / 1
LCM(486,1199) = 582714 / 1
LCM(486,1199) = 582714
