Lets's calculate LCM of 149,402
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 59898
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/59898
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3720/149,4822/402 is 2/59898
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 149,402 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(149,402) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(149,402) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(149,402) = ( 149 × 402 ) / 1
LCM(149,402) = 59898 / 1
LCM(149,402) = 59898
