Lets's calculate LCM of 445,4242
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1887690
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1887690
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6280/445,2118/4242 is 2/1887690
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 445,4242 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(445,4242) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(445,4242) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(445,4242) = ( 445 × 4242 ) / 1
LCM(445,4242) = 1887690 / 1
LCM(445,4242) = 1887690
