Lets's calculate LCM of 432,4313
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1863216
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1863216
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6991/432,6844/4313 is 1/1863216
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 432,4313 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(432,4313) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(432,4313) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(432,4313) = ( 432 × 4313 ) / 1
LCM(432,4313) = 1863216 / 1
LCM(432,4313) = 1863216
