Lets's calculate LCM of 127,4645
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 589915
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/589915
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 244/127,3546/4645 is 2/589915
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 127,4645 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(127,4645) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(127,4645) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(127,4645) = ( 127 × 4645 ) / 1
LCM(127,4645) = 589915 / 1
LCM(127,4645) = 589915
