Lets's calculate LCM of 445,9121
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4058845
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4058845
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7216/445,1159/9121 is 1/4058845
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 445,9121 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(445,9121) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(445,9121) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(445,9121) = ( 445 × 9121 ) / 1
LCM(445,9121) = 4058845 / 1
LCM(445,9121) = 4058845
