Lets's calculate LCM of 853,425
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 362525
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/362525
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5308/853,8880/425 is 4/362525
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 853,425 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(853,425) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(853,425) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(853,425) = ( 853 × 425 ) / 1
LCM(853,425) = 362525 / 1
LCM(853,425) = 362525
