Lets's calculate LCM of 468,8587
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4018716
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4018716
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4436/468,6088/8587 is 4/4018716
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 468,8587 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(468,8587) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(468,8587) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(468,8587) = ( 468 × 8587 ) / 1
LCM(468,8587) = 4018716 / 1
LCM(468,8587) = 4018716
