So the greatest common factor 5045,8550 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 997,3068
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3058796
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/3058796
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5045/997,8550/3068 is 5/3058796
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 997,3068 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(997,3068) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(997,3068) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(997,3068) = ( 997 × 3068 ) / 1
LCM(997,3068) = 3058796 / 1
LCM(997,3068) = 3058796
