So the greatest common factor 6663,4218 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 475,2494
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1184650
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1184650
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6663/475,4218/2494 is 3/1184650
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 475,2494 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(475,2494) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(475,2494) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(475,2494) = ( 475 × 2494 ) / 1
LCM(475,2494) = 1184650 / 1
LCM(475,2494) = 1184650
