So the greatest common factor 5749,2944 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 171,4658
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 796518
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/796518
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5749/171,2944/4658 is 1/796518
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 171,4658 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(171,4658) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(171,4658) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(171,4658) = ( 171 × 4658 ) / 1
LCM(171,4658) = 796518 / 1
LCM(171,4658) = 796518
