Lets's calculate LCM of 429,4001
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1716429
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1716429
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4772/429,3464/4001 is 4/1716429
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 429,4001 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(429,4001) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(429,4001) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(429,4001) = ( 429 × 4001 ) / 1
LCM(429,4001) = 1716429 / 1
LCM(429,4001) = 1716429
