So the greatest common factor 2483,8645 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,971
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 48550
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/48550
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2483/50,8645/971 is 13/48550
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 50,971 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,971) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(50,971) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(50,971) = ( 50 × 971 ) / 1
LCM(50,971) = 48550 / 1
LCM(50,971) = 48550
