So the greatest common factor 444,144 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 479,419
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 200701
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/200701
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 444/479,144/419 is 12/200701
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 479,419 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(479,419) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(479,419) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(479,419) = ( 479 × 419 ) / 1
LCM(479,419) = 200701 / 1
LCM(479,419) = 200701
