Lets's calculate LCM of 296,491
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 145336
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/145336
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4785/296,4837/491 is 1/145336
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 296,491 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(296,491) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(296,491) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(296,491) = ( 296 × 491 ) / 1
LCM(296,491) = 145336 / 1
LCM(296,491) = 145336
