Lets's calculate LCM of 261,4444
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1159884
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1159884
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3386/261,8607/4444 is 1/1159884
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 261,4444 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(261,4444) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(261,4444) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(261,4444) = ( 261 × 4444 ) / 1
LCM(261,4444) = 1159884 / 1
LCM(261,4444) = 1159884
