Lets's calculate LCM of 978,673
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 658194
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/658194
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3124/978,7364/673 is 4/658194
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 978,673 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(978,673) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(978,673) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(978,673) = ( 978 × 673 ) / 1
LCM(978,673) = 658194 / 1
LCM(978,673) = 658194
