Lets's calculate LCM of 419,3849
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1612731
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 27/1612731
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3591/419,7992/3849 is 27/1612731
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 419,3849 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(419,3849) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(419,3849) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(419,3849) = ( 419 × 3849 ) / 1
LCM(419,3849) = 1612731 / 1
LCM(419,3849) = 1612731
