Lets's calculate LCM of 449,1638
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 735462
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/735462
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5835/449,1670/1638 is 5/735462
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 449,1638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(449,1638) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(449,1638) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(449,1638) = ( 449 × 1638 ) / 1
LCM(449,1638) = 735462 / 1
LCM(449,1638) = 735462
