So the greatest common factor 3231,8464 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 464,5387
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2499568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2499568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3231/464,8464/5387 is 1/2499568
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 464,5387 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(464,5387) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(464,5387) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(464,5387) = ( 464 × 5387 ) / 1
LCM(464,5387) = 2499568 / 1
LCM(464,5387) = 2499568
