We found the factors 2913,2913 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2913,2913 is 2913.
Lets's calculate LCM of 987,4850
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4786950
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2913/4786950
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2913/987,2913/4850 is 2913/4786950
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 987,4850 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(987,4850) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(987,4850) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(987,4850) = ( 987 × 4850 ) / 1
LCM(987,4850) = 4786950 / 1
LCM(987,4850) = 4786950
