So the greatest common factor 943,1150 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 859,459
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 394281
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/394281
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 943/859,1150/459 is 23/394281
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 859,459 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(859,459) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(859,459) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(859,459) = ( 859 × 459 ) / 1
LCM(859,459) = 394281 / 1
LCM(859,459) = 394281
