Lets's calculate LCM of 426,7121
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3033546
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3033546
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3615/426,5159/7121 is 1/3033546
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 426,7121 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(426,7121) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(426,7121) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(426,7121) = ( 426 × 7121 ) / 1
LCM(426,7121) = 3033546 / 1
LCM(426,7121) = 3033546
