So the greatest common factor 1496,4674 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 57,553
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 31521
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/31521
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1496/57,4674/553 is 2/31521
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 57,553 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(57,553) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(57,553) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(57,553) = ( 57 × 553 ) / 1
LCM(57,553) = 31521 / 1
LCM(57,553) = 31521
