So the greatest common factor 5856,1356 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 881,446
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 392926
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/392926
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5856/881,1356/446 is 12/392926
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 881,446 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(881,446) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(881,446) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(881,446) = ( 881 × 446 ) / 1
LCM(881,446) = 392926 / 1
LCM(881,446) = 392926
