Lets's calculate LCM of 377,4662
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1757574
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1757574
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1187/377,4908/4662 is 1/1757574
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 377,4662 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(377,4662) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(377,4662) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(377,4662) = ( 377 × 4662 ) / 1
LCM(377,4662) = 1757574 / 1
LCM(377,4662) = 1757574
