Lets's calculate LCM of 899,5936
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5336464
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/5336464
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4408/899,3208/5936 is 8/5336464
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 899,5936 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(899,5936) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(899,5936) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(899,5936) = ( 899 × 5936 ) / 1
LCM(899,5936) = 5336464 / 1
LCM(899,5936) = 5336464
