Lets's calculate LCM of 602,1963
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1181726
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1181726
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3136/602,4658/1963 is 2/1181726
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 602,1963 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(602,1963) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(602,1963) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(602,1963) = ( 602 × 1963 ) / 1
LCM(602,1963) = 1181726 / 1
LCM(602,1963) = 1181726
