Lets's calculate LCM of 792,4997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3957624
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3957624
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8629/792,4991/4997 is 1/3957624
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 792,4997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(792,4997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(792,4997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(792,4997) = ( 792 × 4997 ) / 1
LCM(792,4997) = 3957624 / 1
LCM(792,4997) = 3957624
