Lets's calculate LCM of 699,4259
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2977041
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2977041
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6279/699,3531/4259 is 3/2977041
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 699,4259 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(699,4259) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(699,4259) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(699,4259) = ( 699 × 4259 ) / 1
LCM(699,4259) = 2977041 / 1
LCM(699,4259) = 2977041
