Lets's calculate LCM of 990,3149
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3117510
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/3117510
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1644/990,4636/3149 is 4/3117510
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 990,3149 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(990,3149) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(990,3149) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(990,3149) = ( 990 × 3149 ) / 1
LCM(990,3149) = 3117510 / 1
LCM(990,3149) = 3117510
