So the greatest common factor 5348,4020 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 442,6843
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3024606
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/3024606
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5348/442,4020/6843 is 4/3024606
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 442,6843 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(442,6843) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(442,6843) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(442,6843) = ( 442 × 6843 ) / 1
LCM(442,6843) = 3024606 / 1
LCM(442,6843) = 3024606
