Lets's calculate LCM of 457,6852
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3131364
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/3131364
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4568/457,3492/6852 is 4/3131364
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 457,6852 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(457,6852) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(457,6852) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(457,6852) = ( 457 × 6852 ) / 1
LCM(457,6852) = 3131364 / 1
LCM(457,6852) = 3131364
