Lets's calculate LCM of 638,289
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 184382
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 22/184382
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9218/638,4994/289 is 22/184382
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 638,289 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(638,289) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(638,289) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(638,289) = ( 638 × 289 ) / 1
LCM(638,289) = 184382 / 1
LCM(638,289) = 184382
