Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3840/485,6069/420 is 3/40740
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 485,420 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(485,420) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(485,420) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(485,420) = ( 485 × 420 ) / 5
LCM(485,420) = 203700 / 5
LCM(485,420) = 40740
