So the greatest common factor 4798,3162 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 181,8978
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1625018
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1625018
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4798/181,3162/8978 is 2/1625018
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 181,8978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(181,8978) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(181,8978) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(181,8978) = ( 181 × 8978 ) / 1
LCM(181,8978) = 1625018 / 1
LCM(181,8978) = 1625018
