Lets's calculate LCM of 421,160
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 67360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/67360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3616/421,7509/160 is 1/67360
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 421,160 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(421,160) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(421,160) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(421,160) = ( 421 × 160 ) / 1
LCM(421,160) = 67360 / 1
LCM(421,160) = 67360
