Lets's calculate LCM of 248,1807
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 448136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/448136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4842/248,3648/1807 is 6/448136
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 248,1807 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(248,1807) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(248,1807) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(248,1807) = ( 248 × 1807 ) / 1
LCM(248,1807) = 448136 / 1
LCM(248,1807) = 448136
