Lets's calculate LCM of 401,6870
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2754870
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2754870
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 452/401,3708/6870 is 4/2754870
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 401,6870 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(401,6870) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(401,6870) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(401,6870) = ( 401 × 6870 ) / 1
LCM(401,6870) = 2754870 / 1
LCM(401,6870) = 2754870
