Lets's calculate LCM of 488,5543
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2704984
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2704984
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8334/488,4702/5543 is 2/2704984
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 488,5543 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(488,5543) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(488,5543) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(488,5543) = ( 488 × 5543 ) / 1
LCM(488,5543) = 2704984 / 1
LCM(488,5543) = 2704984
