Lets's calculate LCM of 490,9997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4898530
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4898530
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1424/490,4726/9997 is 2/4898530
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 490,9997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(490,9997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(490,9997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(490,9997) = ( 490 × 9997 ) / 1
LCM(490,9997) = 4898530 / 1
LCM(490,9997) = 4898530
