Lets's calculate LCM of 894,5425
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4849950
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/4849950
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9474/894,4218/5425 is 6/4849950
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 894,5425 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(894,5425) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(894,5425) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(894,5425) = ( 894 × 5425 ) / 1
LCM(894,5425) = 4849950 / 1
LCM(894,5425) = 4849950
