So the greatest common factor 3872,4053 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 901,5437
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4898737
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4898737
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3872/901,4053/5437 is 1/4898737
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 901,5437 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(901,5437) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(901,5437) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(901,5437) = ( 901 × 5437 ) / 1
LCM(901,5437) = 4898737 / 1
LCM(901,5437) = 4898737
