Lets's calculate LCM of 5116,4717
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 24132172
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/24132172
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 843/5116,312/4717 is 3/24132172
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 5116,4717 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(5116,4717) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(5116,4717) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(5116,4717) = ( 5116 × 4717 ) / 1
LCM(5116,4717) = 24132172 / 1
LCM(5116,4717) = 24132172
