So the greatest common factor 9224,4636 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,338
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 16562
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/16562
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9224/49,4636/338 is 4/16562
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 49,338 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,338) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,338) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,338) = ( 49 × 338 ) / 1
LCM(49,338) = 16562 / 1
LCM(49,338) = 16562
