Lets's calculate LCM of 599,4171
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2498429
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2498429
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 676/599,8432/4171 is 4/2498429
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 599,4171 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(599,4171) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(599,4171) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(599,4171) = ( 599 × 4171 ) / 1
LCM(599,4171) = 2498429 / 1
LCM(599,4171) = 2498429
