Lets's calculate LCM of 639,4597
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2937483
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/2937483
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1456/639,6304/4597 is 16/2937483
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 639,4597 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(639,4597) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(639,4597) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(639,4597) = ( 639 × 4597 ) / 1
LCM(639,4597) = 2937483 / 1
LCM(639,4597) = 2937483
