Lets's calculate LCM of 454,2697
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1224438
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1224438
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5940/454,4479/2697 is 3/1224438
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 454,2697 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(454,2697) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(454,2697) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(454,2697) = ( 454 × 2697 ) / 1
LCM(454,2697) = 1224438 / 1
LCM(454,2697) = 1224438
