So the greatest common factor 1845,8598 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 417,3407
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1420719
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1420719
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1845/417,8598/3407 is 3/1420719
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 417,3407 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(417,3407) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(417,3407) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(417,3407) = ( 417 × 3407 ) / 1
LCM(417,3407) = 1420719 / 1
LCM(417,3407) = 1420719
