Lets's calculate LCM of 395,283
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 111785
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/111785
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4938/395,5066/283 is 2/111785
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 395,283 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(395,283) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(395,283) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(395,283) = ( 395 × 283 ) / 1
LCM(395,283) = 111785 / 1
LCM(395,283) = 111785
