So the greatest common factor 425,918 is 17.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,839
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 37755
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/37755
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 425/45,918/839 is 17/37755
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 45,839 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,839) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(45,839) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(45,839) = ( 45 × 839 ) / 1
LCM(45,839) = 37755 / 1
LCM(45,839) = 37755
