Lets's calculate LCM of 532,5359
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2850988
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2850988
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3874/532,4406/5359 is 2/2850988
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 532,5359 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(532,5359) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(532,5359) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(532,5359) = ( 532 × 5359 ) / 1
LCM(532,5359) = 2850988 / 1
LCM(532,5359) = 2850988
