Lets's calculate LCM of 835,4421
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3691535
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3691535
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6894/835,5879/4421 is 1/3691535
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 835,4421 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(835,4421) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(835,4421) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(835,4421) = ( 835 × 4421 ) / 1
LCM(835,4421) = 3691535 / 1
LCM(835,4421) = 3691535
