Lets's calculate LCM of 517,4260
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2202420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2202420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5696/517,8246/4260 is 2/2202420
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 517,4260 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(517,4260) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(517,4260) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(517,4260) = ( 517 × 4260 ) / 1
LCM(517,4260) = 2202420 / 1
LCM(517,4260) = 2202420
