Lets's calculate LCM of 845,4428
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3741660
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 32/3741660
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1856/845,8544/4428 is 32/3741660
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 845,4428 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(845,4428) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(845,4428) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(845,4428) = ( 845 × 4428 ) / 1
LCM(845,4428) = 3741660 / 1
LCM(845,4428) = 3741660
