Lets's calculate LCM of 557,4892
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2724844
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2724844
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2966/557,2022/4892 is 2/2724844
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 557,4892 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(557,4892) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(557,4892) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(557,4892) = ( 557 × 4892 ) / 1
LCM(557,4892) = 2724844 / 1
LCM(557,4892) = 2724844
