Lets's calculate LCM of 443,3602
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1595686
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1595686
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6408/443,1148/3602 is 4/1595686
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 443,3602 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(443,3602) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(443,3602) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(443,3602) = ( 443 × 3602 ) / 1
LCM(443,3602) = 1595686 / 1
LCM(443,3602) = 1595686
