Lets's calculate LCM of 598,4699
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2810002
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/2810002
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7158/598,3858/4699 is 6/2810002
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 598,4699 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(598,4699) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(598,4699) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(598,4699) = ( 598 × 4699 ) / 1
LCM(598,4699) = 2810002 / 1
LCM(598,4699) = 2810002
