Lets's calculate LCM of 158,9997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1579526
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1579526
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4802/158,6990/9997 is 2/1579526
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 158,9997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(158,9997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(158,9997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(158,9997) = ( 158 × 9997 ) / 1
LCM(158,9997) = 1579526 / 1
LCM(158,9997) = 1579526
