So the greatest common factor 3757,8456 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 601,4157
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2498357
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2498357
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3757/601,8456/4157 is 1/2498357
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 601,4157 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(601,4157) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(601,4157) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(601,4157) = ( 601 × 4157 ) / 1
LCM(601,4157) = 2498357 / 1
LCM(601,4157) = 2498357
