So the greatest common factor 4994,1272 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 605,2733
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1653465
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1653465
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4994/605,1272/2733 is 2/1653465
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 605,2733 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(605,2733) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(605,2733) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(605,2733) = ( 605 × 2733 ) / 1
LCM(605,2733) = 1653465 / 1
LCM(605,2733) = 1653465
