So the greatest common factor 4744,4028 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 589,126
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 74214
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/74214
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4744/589,4028/126 is 4/74214
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 589,126 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(589,126) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(589,126) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(589,126) = ( 589 × 126 ) / 1
LCM(589,126) = 74214 / 1
LCM(589,126) = 74214
