Lets's calculate LCM of 4979,6482
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 32273878
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/32273878
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 782/4979,236/6482 is 2/32273878
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 4979,6482 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(4979,6482) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(4979,6482) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(4979,6482) = ( 4979 × 6482 ) / 1
LCM(4979,6482) = 32273878 / 1
LCM(4979,6482) = 32273878
