Lets's calculate LCM of 879,5155
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4531245
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4531245
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4404/879,3604/5155 is 4/4531245
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 879,5155 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(879,5155) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(879,5155) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(879,5155) = ( 879 × 5155 ) / 1
LCM(879,5155) = 4531245 / 1
LCM(879,5155) = 4531245
