So the greatest common factor 154,736 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,4709
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 131852
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/131852
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 154/28,736/4709 is 2/131852
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 28,4709 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,4709) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(28,4709) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(28,4709) = ( 28 × 4709 ) / 1
LCM(28,4709) = 131852 / 1
LCM(28,4709) = 131852
