So the greatest common factor 4199,4012 is 17.
Lets's calculate LCM of 373,3161
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1179053
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/1179053
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4199/373,4012/3161 is 17/1179053
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 373,3161 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(373,3161) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(373,3161) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(373,3161) = ( 373 × 3161 ) / 1
LCM(373,3161) = 1179053 / 1
LCM(373,3161) = 1179053
