So the greatest common factor 4178,4300 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 136,9949
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1353064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1353064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4178/136,4300/9949 is 2/1353064
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 136,9949 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(136,9949) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(136,9949) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(136,9949) = ( 136 × 9949 ) / 1
LCM(136,9949) = 1353064 / 1
LCM(136,9949) = 1353064
