So the greatest common factor 4744,8980 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 385,109
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 41965
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/41965
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4744/385,8980/109 is 4/41965
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 385,109 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(385,109) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(385,109) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(385,109) = ( 385 × 109 ) / 1
LCM(385,109) = 41965 / 1
LCM(385,109) = 41965
