Lets's calculate LCM of 602,3559
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2142518
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2142518
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4956/602,8768/3559 is 4/2142518
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 602,3559 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(602,3559) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(602,3559) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(602,3559) = ( 602 × 3559 ) / 1
LCM(602,3559) = 2142518 / 1
LCM(602,3559) = 2142518
