Lets's calculate LCM of 132,4121
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 543972
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/543972
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6388/132,9474/4121 is 2/543972
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 132,4121 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(132,4121) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(132,4121) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(132,4121) = ( 132 × 4121 ) / 1
LCM(132,4121) = 543972 / 1
LCM(132,4121) = 543972
