So the greatest common factor 3353,2079 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 468,1579
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 738972
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/738972
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3353/468,2079/1579 is 7/738972
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 468,1579 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(468,1579) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(468,1579) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(468,1579) = ( 468 × 1579 ) / 1
LCM(468,1579) = 738972 / 1
LCM(468,1579) = 738972
