Lets's calculate LCM of 637,603
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 384111
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/384111
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4226/637,1194/603 is 2/384111
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 637,603 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(637,603) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(637,603) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(637,603) = ( 637 × 603 ) / 1
LCM(637,603) = 384111 / 1
LCM(637,603) = 384111
