Lets's calculate LCM of 178,3557
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 633146
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/633146
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1484/178,7524/3557 is 4/633146
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 178,3557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(178,3557) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(178,3557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(178,3557) = ( 178 × 3557 ) / 1
LCM(178,3557) = 633146 / 1
LCM(178,3557) = 633146
