So the greatest common factor 2240,4185 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 839,4586
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3847654
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/3847654
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2240/839,4185/4586 is 5/3847654
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 839,4586 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(839,4586) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(839,4586) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(839,4586) = ( 839 × 4586 ) / 1
LCM(839,4586) = 3847654 / 1
LCM(839,4586) = 3847654
