So the greatest common factor 2860,4462 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 408,1291
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 526728
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/526728
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2860/408,4462/1291 is 2/526728
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 408,1291 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(408,1291) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(408,1291) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(408,1291) = ( 408 × 1291 ) / 1
LCM(408,1291) = 526728 / 1
LCM(408,1291) = 526728
