So the greatest common factor 4580,2540 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 475,8843
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4200425
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/4200425
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4580/475,2540/8843 is 20/4200425
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 475,8843 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(475,8843) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(475,8843) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(475,8843) = ( 475 × 8843 ) / 1
LCM(475,8843) = 4200425 / 1
LCM(475,8843) = 4200425
