Lets's calculate LCM of 493,8728
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4302904
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4302904
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5084/493,5116/8728 is 4/4302904
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 493,8728 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(493,8728) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(493,8728) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(493,8728) = ( 493 × 8728 ) / 1
LCM(493,8728) = 4302904 / 1
LCM(493,8728) = 4302904
