Lets's calculate LCM of 401,6644
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2664244
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2664244
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4252/401,3880/6644 is 4/2664244
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 401,6644 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(401,6644) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(401,6644) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(401,6644) = ( 401 × 6644 ) / 1
LCM(401,6644) = 2664244 / 1
LCM(401,6644) = 2664244
