Lets's calculate LCM of 845,1429
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1207505
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1207505
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 76/845,3628/1429 is 4/1207505
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 845,1429 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(845,1429) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(845,1429) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(845,1429) = ( 845 × 1429 ) / 1
LCM(845,1429) = 1207505 / 1
LCM(845,1429) = 1207505
