So the greatest common factor 4546,9456 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 632,2331
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1473192
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1473192
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4546/632,9456/2331 is 2/1473192
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 632,2331 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(632,2331) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(632,2331) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(632,2331) = ( 632 × 2331 ) / 1
LCM(632,2331) = 1473192 / 1
LCM(632,2331) = 1473192
