Lets's calculate LCM of 857,4335
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3715095
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3715095
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2443/857,8601/4335 is 1/3715095
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 857,4335 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(857,4335) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(857,4335) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(857,4335) = ( 857 × 4335 ) / 1
LCM(857,4335) = 3715095 / 1
LCM(857,4335) = 3715095
