Lets's calculate LCM of 298,4921
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1466458
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1466458
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3732/298,9386/4921 is 2/1466458
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 298,4921 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(298,4921) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(298,4921) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(298,4921) = ( 298 × 4921 ) / 1
LCM(298,4921) = 1466458 / 1
LCM(298,4921) = 1466458
