Lets's calculate LCM of 435,1621
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 705135
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/705135
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3444/435,7438/1621 is 2/705135
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 435,1621 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(435,1621) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(435,1621) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(435,1621) = ( 435 × 1621 ) / 1
LCM(435,1621) = 705135 / 1
LCM(435,1621) = 705135
