Lets's calculate LCM of 489,9382
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4587798
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4587798
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4676/489,6868/9382 is 4/4587798
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 489,9382 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(489,9382) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(489,9382) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(489,9382) = ( 489 × 9382 ) / 1
LCM(489,9382) = 4587798 / 1
LCM(489,9382) = 4587798
