Lets's calculate LCM of 472,3619
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1708168
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1708168
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4322/472,3171/3619 is 1/1708168
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 472,3619 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(472,3619) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(472,3619) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(472,3619) = ( 472 × 3619 ) / 1
LCM(472,3619) = 1708168 / 1
LCM(472,3619) = 1708168
