Lets's calculate LCM of 454,9085
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4124590
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4124590
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1836/454,3531/9085 is 3/4124590
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 454,9085 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(454,9085) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(454,9085) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(454,9085) = ( 454 × 9085 ) / 1
LCM(454,9085) = 4124590 / 1
LCM(454,9085) = 4124590
