So the greatest common factor 7160,1436 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 354,4621
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1635834
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1635834
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7160/354,1436/4621 is 4/1635834
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 354,4621 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(354,4621) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(354,4621) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(354,4621) = ( 354 × 4621 ) / 1
LCM(354,4621) = 1635834 / 1
LCM(354,4621) = 1635834
