Lets's calculate LCM of 499,4186
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2088814
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/2088814
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4641/499,1157/4186 is 13/2088814
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 499,4186 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(499,4186) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(499,4186) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(499,4186) = ( 499 × 4186 ) / 1
LCM(499,4186) = 2088814 / 1
LCM(499,4186) = 2088814
