Lets's calculate LCM of 359,4335
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1556265
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/1556265
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1872/359,1469/4335 is 13/1556265
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 359,4335 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(359,4335) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(359,4335) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(359,4335) = ( 359 × 4335 ) / 1
LCM(359,4335) = 1556265 / 1
LCM(359,4335) = 1556265
