Lets's calculate LCM of 444,3553
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1577532
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1577532
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5235/444,5159/3553 is 1/1577532
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 444,3553 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(444,3553) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(444,3553) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(444,3553) = ( 444 × 3553 ) / 1
LCM(444,3553) = 1577532 / 1
LCM(444,3553) = 1577532
