So the greatest common factor 4961,8404 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 33,686
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 22638
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/22638
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4961/33,8404/686 is 11/22638
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 33,686 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(33,686) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(33,686) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(33,686) = ( 33 × 686 ) / 1
LCM(33,686) = 22638 / 1
LCM(33,686) = 22638
