So the greatest common factor 3602,4584 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 515,381
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 196215
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/196215
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3602/515,4584/381 is 2/196215
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 515,381 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(515,381) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(515,381) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(515,381) = ( 515 × 381 ) / 1
LCM(515,381) = 196215 / 1
LCM(515,381) = 196215
