Lets's calculate LCM of 863,432
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 372816
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/372816
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3485/863,6426/432 is 17/372816
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 863,432 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(863,432) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(863,432) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(863,432) = ( 863 × 432 ) / 1
LCM(863,432) = 372816 / 1
LCM(863,432) = 372816
