So the greatest common factor 430,852 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 853,539
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 459767
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/459767
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 430/853,852/539 is 2/459767
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 853,539 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(853,539) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(853,539) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(853,539) = ( 853 × 539 ) / 1
LCM(853,539) = 459767 / 1
LCM(853,539) = 459767
