Lets's calculate LCM of 497,8142
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4046574
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4046574
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7982/497,3676/8142 is 2/4046574
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 497,8142 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(497,8142) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(497,8142) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(497,8142) = ( 497 × 8142 ) / 1
LCM(497,8142) = 4046574 / 1
LCM(497,8142) = 4046574
