Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3772/752,8628/4918 is 4/1849168
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 752,4918 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(752,4918) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(752,4918) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(752,4918) = ( 752 × 4918 ) / 2
LCM(752,4918) = 3698336 / 2
LCM(752,4918) = 1849168
