Lets's calculate LCM of 476,4457
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2121532
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2121532
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5606/476,5078/4457 is 2/2121532
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 476,4457 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(476,4457) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(476,4457) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(476,4457) = ( 476 × 4457 ) / 1
LCM(476,4457) = 2121532 / 1
LCM(476,4457) = 2121532
