So the greatest common factor 4335,8397 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 332,4001
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1328332
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1328332
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4335/332,8397/4001 is 3/1328332
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 332,4001 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(332,4001) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(332,4001) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(332,4001) = ( 332 × 4001 ) / 1
LCM(332,4001) = 1328332 / 1
LCM(332,4001) = 1328332
