Lets's calculate LCM of 991,622
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 616402
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/616402
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1493/991,3140/622 is 1/616402
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 991,622 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(991,622) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(991,622) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(991,622) = ( 991 × 622 ) / 1
LCM(991,622) = 616402 / 1
LCM(991,622) = 616402
