Lets's calculate LCM of 197,4927
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 970619
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/970619
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9988/197,1661/4927 is 11/970619
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 197,4927 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(197,4927) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(197,4927) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(197,4927) = ( 197 × 4927 ) / 1
LCM(197,4927) = 970619 / 1
LCM(197,4927) = 970619
