So the greatest common factor 4850,4658 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 261,7246
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1891206
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1891206
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4850/261,4658/7246 is 2/1891206
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 261,7246 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(261,7246) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(261,7246) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(261,7246) = ( 261 × 7246 ) / 1
LCM(261,7246) = 1891206 / 1
LCM(261,7246) = 1891206
