Lets's calculate LCM of 285,1946
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 554610
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/554610
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1498/285,1292/1946 is 2/554610
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 285,1946 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(285,1946) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(285,1946) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(285,1946) = ( 285 × 1946 ) / 1
LCM(285,1946) = 554610 / 1
LCM(285,1946) = 554610
