Lets's calculate LCM of 501,4621
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2315121
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2315121
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 606/501,9478/4621 is 2/2315121
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 501,4621 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(501,4621) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(501,4621) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(501,4621) = ( 501 × 4621 ) / 1
LCM(501,4621) = 2315121 / 1
LCM(501,4621) = 2315121
