Lets's calculate LCM of 222,4873
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1081806
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1081806
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4546/222,2496/4873 is 2/1081806
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 222,4873 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(222,4873) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(222,4873) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(222,4873) = ( 222 × 4873 ) / 1
LCM(222,4873) = 1081806 / 1
LCM(222,4873) = 1081806
