So the greatest common factor 2952,8669 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 843,4201
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3541443
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3541443
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2952/843,8669/4201 is 1/3541443
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 843,4201 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(843,4201) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(843,4201) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(843,4201) = ( 843 × 4201 ) / 1
LCM(843,4201) = 3541443 / 1
LCM(843,4201) = 3541443
