Lets's calculate LCM of 491,1894
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 929954
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/929954
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1340/491,2385/1894 is 5/929954
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 491,1894 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(491,1894) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(491,1894) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(491,1894) = ( 491 × 1894 ) / 1
LCM(491,1894) = 929954 / 1
LCM(491,1894) = 929954
