Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/33306
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 494/546,5818/122 is 2/33306
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 546,122 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(546,122) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(546,122) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(546,122) = ( 546 × 122 ) / 2
LCM(546,122) = 66612 / 2
LCM(546,122) = 33306
