Lets's calculate LCM of 382,4749
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1814118
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1814118
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4701/382,4737/4749 is 3/1814118
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 382,4749 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(382,4749) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(382,4749) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(382,4749) = ( 382 × 4749 ) / 1
LCM(382,4749) = 1814118 / 1
LCM(382,4749) = 1814118
