Lets's calculate LCM of 459,1831
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 840429
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/840429
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5401/459,8173/1831 is 11/840429
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 459,1831 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(459,1831) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(459,1831) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(459,1831) = ( 459 × 1831 ) / 1
LCM(459,1831) = 840429 / 1
LCM(459,1831) = 840429
