So the greatest common factor 496,186 is 62.
Lets's calculate LCM of 9649,4626
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 44636274
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 62/44636274
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 496/9649,186/4626 is 62/44636274
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 9649,4626 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9649,4626) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9649,4626) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(9649,4626) = ( 9649 × 4626 ) / 1
LCM(9649,4626) = 44636274 / 1
LCM(9649,4626) = 44636274
