So the greatest common factor 3674,8752 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 551,8954
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4933654
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4933654
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3674/551,8752/8954 is 2/4933654
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 551,8954 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(551,8954) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(551,8954) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(551,8954) = ( 551 × 8954 ) / 1
LCM(551,8954) = 4933654 / 1
LCM(551,8954) = 4933654
