Lets's calculate LCM of 429,4153
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1781637
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1781637
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4234/429,1120/4153 is 2/1781637
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 429,4153 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(429,4153) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(429,4153) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(429,4153) = ( 429 × 4153 ) / 1
LCM(429,4153) = 1781637 / 1
LCM(429,4153) = 1781637
