Lets's calculate LCM of 100,4079
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 407900
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/407900
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5522/100,8472/4079 is 2/407900
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 100,4079 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(100,4079) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(100,4079) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(100,4079) = ( 100 × 4079 ) / 1
LCM(100,4079) = 407900 / 1
LCM(100,4079) = 407900
