Lets's calculate LCM of 996,427
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 425292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/425292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5352/996,3869/427 is 1/425292
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 996,427 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(996,427) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(996,427) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(996,427) = ( 996 × 427 ) / 1
LCM(996,427) = 425292 / 1
LCM(996,427) = 425292
