Lets's calculate LCM of 408,4985
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2033880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2033880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3720/408,2319/4985 is 3/2033880
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 408,4985 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(408,4985) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(408,4985) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(408,4985) = ( 408 × 4985 ) / 1
LCM(408,4985) = 2033880 / 1
LCM(408,4985) = 2033880
