Lets's calculate LCM of 159,7498
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1192182
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1192182
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3147/159,4274/7498 is 1/1192182
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 159,7498 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(159,7498) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(159,7498) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(159,7498) = ( 159 × 7498 ) / 1
LCM(159,7498) = 1192182 / 1
LCM(159,7498) = 1192182
