Lets's calculate LCM of 421,6321
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2661141
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2661141
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8541/421,3685/6321 is 1/2661141
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 421,6321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(421,6321) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(421,6321) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(421,6321) = ( 421 × 6321 ) / 1
LCM(421,6321) = 2661141 / 1
LCM(421,6321) = 2661141
