Lets's calculate LCM of 1436,4215
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6052740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/6052740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 276/1436,591/4215 is 3/6052740
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 1436,4215 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(1436,4215) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(1436,4215) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(1436,4215) = ( 1436 × 4215 ) / 1
LCM(1436,4215) = 6052740 / 1
LCM(1436,4215) = 6052740
