Lets's calculate LCM of 439,4552
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1998328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/1998328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4239/439,5121/4552 is 9/1998328
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 439,4552 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(439,4552) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(439,4552) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(439,4552) = ( 439 × 4552 ) / 1
LCM(439,4552) = 1998328 / 1
LCM(439,4552) = 1998328
